Structural Analysis, Design and Concept Development
Problems are solved before they arise
Our services
About us
SAS Ingenieurbüro AG
We are a team of specialists well-versed in the fields of Structural Analysis, Design and Concept Development. Our job starts with determining the effects of loads on physical structures and their components. Employing the principles of applied mechanics, material science and applied mathematics, we are able to compute any structure’s deformations, internal forces, stresses, support reactions, accelerations and stability. With this unique expertise, we help our customers verify that their products are fit for use, often rendering physical tests unnecessary. Our services do not end with structural analysis, though. Quite the opposite. So please explore our full offer to find out how we can help solve any structural problems your product might suffer before they actually arise. With our expertise, your success is predictable!
