This is second module for basis SACS course. The main objective of this module for SACS software is to cover the way of doing the following analysis which is very important in case you are doing new platfom:
fatigue analysis with its steps
the seismic analysis
pushover analysis
seafastening analysis
load out
transportation analysis.
There are a main feature in SACS software which is the gap member that will be discussed in this module which is unique in SACS and the transportation module. In this course also the following steps will be discussed which apart of the above analysis such as the identification of post processing and combine solution with materials take off is presented also. It is very important option is to calculate the pile capacity by knowing the geotechnical parameters. In this module the way of using SACS software to calculate the pile capacity calculation by using SACS will be discussed in detail in this session. There is an option to obtain the materials take off (MTO) for steel and welding area by using SACS will be presented also. This module will cover all the about the basics of SACS software another module III which is 6 parts cover a complete real project
