Hey Everyone,

I have a project to do for college and it involves the structural design of a stand. The stand is in the shape of a pyramid made with 1.5 inch tubular steel and there is a static load on top of it. I have to look into the design using FEA (Ansys).

The problem is that I have to back the FEA up with hand calculations and Im not sure where to start.

Please help

Hi,
I done good projects in FEA- Structural & Thermal Analysis.
First,start hand calculations of the structure, by taking individual part free body diagram, apply loads and get reactions.
you can reach me for any further questions....
