The professionals of Dynamic Engineering Consultants employ Finite Element Analysis (FEA) tools to accurately determine static and dynamic limits of structural members such as support columns, beams, and trusses in residential and commercial construction. FEA software allows our engineers to achieve more accurate results in less time than the traditional hand calculations or expensive engineering testing.

Finite Element Analysis originated because of the need for solving complex elasticity and structural analysis problems in civil and aeronautical engineering problems. FEA allows our engineers to visualize stiffness and strength of a structure prior to actual construction.  FEA aids construction savings by minimizing weight, materials, and costs without sacrificing strength and quality. It allows our engineers to create detailed visualization of where structures bend or twist, and indicates the distribution of stresses and displacements.

Finite Element Analysis software provides a wide range of simulation options for controlling the complexity of modeling and analysis of a building system. FEA allows us to create entire designs and then refine and optimize them before construction. Finite Element Analysis software has significantly improved the standard of engineering designs and the methodology of the design process.

What this means to you is a substantial decrease in time from concept to construction thanks to increased accuracy, enhanced design and better insight into critical design parameters, virtual prototyping.  Your project benefits by having a faster and less expensive design cycle resulting in a better more substantial building.
