Documentation and Strength Calculation Services
Strength calculation is part of Fimecon's daily work. We handle the design of pressure equipment, flexibility analysis of high and low pressure pipelines, and steel structures. Strength calculation is also used in product development and structural optimization. We also conduct earthquake measurements and with regard to sizing, we take the necessary standards into account.
