How to define the maximum loads applied to a 2 ladder system assembled by pivot?
THE CHALLENGE:
Ensure the safety of the artists by making sure that the ladders can resist the loads of a high-rise acrobatic number.
THE SOLUTION:
Turnkey Sim-optimization approach
- Understanding of the requirements of the number to identify the possible loading scenarios;
- Definition of the critical conditions for the ladders and the anchors;
- Calculation of the reaction forces at the junctions of the ladders;
- Recommendations for the design of the junction points.
THE RESULTS:
- Reduction of the risks of accident and improvement of the safety of the acrobats;
- Creative concept supported by engineering results;
- Work achieved following a very tight schedule.
