The plan dimensions are 1.7 x 3.4 m. The device is used in the cement production plant. The structure walls of the typical hopper shape are reinforced by the stiffeners. The main challenge of the modelling was the complicated geometry and the Eurocode defined load acting on hopper which is always laborious to assemble, nonlinear analysis was used for stability and plastic analysis. All the difficulties were overcome using SCIA Engineer software, the especially great advantage is the very fast solver enabling us to perform geometrical and material nonlinear analysis with the dense finite element mesh relatively quickly. The presentation of results, especially the graphical interpretation on the 3D model, gave us a good insight into the response of the structure. In the second step, the Engineering Report helped us prepare the comprehensive project documentation quickly.
