Temperature Loads in Prokon SUMO
Temperature loads in Prokon SUMO simulate thermal expansion or contraction in structural elements due to environmental temperature changes such as summer heat or winter cold. These effects are particularly significant in long-span structures like bridges, industrial halls, and precast systems. Application on Concrete Slabs Application on Steel Structures Key Notes: Temperature loads in SUMO are […]
