Dimensionamento de estrutura metálica para o transporte de chapas da empresa de Fundição de Alumínio Mozal

Abstract

The present work arose within the scope of the internal tender of the companies that provide services to Mozal, which seeks to develop and dimension metallic structures for the transport of aluminum plates (Industrial Metal Rack) of the aluminum foundry company Mozal. where, in order to achieve this objective, I, through the company of which Salaty Service is part, carried out a case study of a project entirely in steel metallic structure, because steel has excellent mechanical properties such as good tensile strength, compression, and bending. Regarding the regulations adopted, the Structural Eurocodes will be used, especially Eurocode 3 for the sizing of metallic elements, quantification and combination of actions. And to determine the efforts and deformations of the Structure, it was performed in the finite element software “SAP2000” and Cypecad (Metal 3D).
