Technical study of a building and its bridge crane under seismic loading

STAR building at CEA Cadarache (INB 55)
Export and adaptation of models, various dynamic analyses, seismic re-evaluation studies of the reinforced concrete building, study of the overhead crane.

The sensitivity allows us to formulate several hypotheses on the characteristics of the soil and the bearings corresponding to different states of ageing.
Processing of the finite element model format (HERCUL to Code_Aster).

Adaptation of the model for modal-spectral and time history analyses.
Seismic re-evaluation studies for the main building: verification of reinforced concrete structural elements (slabs, walls).

Verification of the stability of the crane. Calculation of the levelled seismic spectrum.
