Altair Inspire® Challenge #3: 3D printed Structural Steel Connection Design
Altair EmployeeStructural Steel Connections often require carefully designed components to safely transfer loads to the ground. In this challenge we will design a 3D Printed Structural Steel Connector to transfer loads between a set of structural steel members to the ground. The design must be such that it can accommodate bolted or welded connections to connect to the Structural Steel Components, and the goal of the design is to minimize weight while ensuring the load transfer to the ground occurs without plastic deformation. The attached STMOD file can be a starting point. It contains a sample design space, loads, and supports. Feel free to adjust the design space, and optimization settings (lattice optimization) to your preferences.
