The goal of this project is to investigate the structural behaviour of a gusseted L-bracket subjected to a static load using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The study will evaluate the von Mises stress distribution, total deformation, and factor of safety under defined loading and boundary conditions. It will also investigate the influence of the reinforcing gusset on the bracket's structural performance. The project aims to develop practical skills in CAD-based engineering simulation, material selection, mesh generation, and interpretation of FEA results. The findings will be documented in a technical case study, including the simulation methodology, results, limitations, and potential design improvements.
