AS2294 ROPS & FOPS
Structural integrity of Roll Over Protection Systems (ROPS) and Falling Object Protection Systems (FOPS) is critical to ensure safety for the operator of vehicles, agricultural and earthmoving equipment.
Whilst physical testing is generally required to comply with the relevant standards, such testing is expensive and time consuming, so nonlinear FEA can be used during the design phase to ensure the design will perform as expected prior to moving to physical testing.
We’ve done our own physical testing of a typical ROPS structure to correlate our FEA modelling methods, providing confidence in our simulation results and ensuring your ROPS or FOPS design will meet the physical test requirements first time around.
