SV MechCAD

SERVICE / 06

Prove the Design Before Steel Is Cut.

Static structural, stress, and factor-of-safety studies used to prove a design before it is cut.

PROBLEM

The constraint

A CAD model can look complete and still be over-stressed at a joint, a lug, or a beam web.

SOLUTION

What we provide

SV MechCAD runs design-stage FEA — deformation, equivalent stress, and factor of safety — so the CAD we issue is a checked design, not a pretty assembly.

  • Static structural analysis
  • von Mises stress review
  • Deformation and factor-of-safety plots
  • Design iteration from FEA findings

WORKFLOW

How the work proceeds

  1. 01

    Agree loads, constraints, and acceptance criteria

  2. 02

    Mesh and solve the critical study

  3. 03

    Interpret plots against the design intent

  4. 04

    Revise CAD where the analysis demands it

OUTCOME

Benefits

  • High-stress regions found on screen, not on site
  • A documented check alongside the drawing
  • Design confidence before fabrication
