I need a clear, engineering-grade static Finite Element Analysis of my vertical hydraulic lifting frame. The structure is fabricated entirely from steel and must be verified at its maximum rated load.

The job is straightforward: take my CAD model (STEP or SolidWorks format), apply the maximum load capacity as boundary conditions, run a linear static study in a recognised solver such as ANSYS, Abaqus, or SolidWorks Simulation, and show me exactly how the frame behaves.

Please focus on:
• Overall stress and strain distribution
• Deflection at critical points
• Minimum safety factor throughout the frame
• Identification of any regions that exceed allowable stress for structural steel

Deliverables I expect:
1. Edited CAD file with applied loads and constraints visible.
2. A concise PDF report containing screenshots, result plots, a short explanation of methodology, and your recommendations for reinforcement if needed.
3. Native solver files so I can reproduce the study if required.

A quick turnaround is appreciated, but accuracy is more important than speed. If anything is unclear, let me know before you start so we lock down assumptions early.
