MDESIGN Seminar
Differences in application and methods of weld seam calculation
Welded joints play an important role in mechanical engineering and many other industries.
play an important role. It is therefore of enormous importance,
rules and regulations for welded components. In this specially designed
you will learn all about recognized calculation methods and the latest technologies.
and the latest technologies.
These topics await you...
In this seminar, you will learn how welded structures can be economically designed in practice in accordance with FKM,
Eurocode and DVS 1612 can be economically designed and calculated.
The strength verifications according to Eurocode (EC 3 steel construction) are used for
steel structures and DVS 1612 in rail vehicle construction.
