The latest version 22.1 of IDEA StatiCa (which is free for all users of V22) confirms for one more time, the huge development efforts of our team, and the commitment to listen to our customer wishes.

Especially for the UK customers, we have great news! The #1 feature request according to the survey we have conducted in 2021 has been implemented! Horizontal tying resistance is now available as an additional type of analysis and will allow you to examine the robustness of a steel connection under accidental loading.

In addition to that, you can now design and check your steel connections for Fire design, perform Thermal analysis of critical concrete members in your project, and simulate welds with tension only behavior (another feature request from our UK users).

So don’t wait! Download 22.1 and discover the most advanced IDEA StatiCa ever!

What our customers are saying

"A real turning point"

Implementing the IDEA software into our company has been a real turning point for us. It allows us to create connections that are lightweight, cost-effective and structurally efficient all the while giving us the flexibility to design a connection to any imaginable configuration whilst still giving us the confidence that the connections are designed in accordance with the relevant design standards.

Mirivinao Karrig Structural Engineer at Kiernan Steel

'Very easy to use'

IDEA StatiCa allows a stress analysis to be carried out on very complex connections and the software is very easy to use. This aided our connection design for the main node connections on The Marshall Building at LSE

Mark Hill Associate Director at Bourne Group

"Fantastically efficient tool"

IDEA StatiCa software is a fantastically efficient tool that’s helped us streamline our connection design processes. The cloud-based licence makes it easy for us to access the software from anywhere, and the support team is always on hand to sort out any issues.

Malachy Ryan Managing Director at Alan White Design Ltd

"A fantastic software"

IDEA StatiCa is fantastic 3-D design software that allows us to design some of the most interesting and complex steel-to-steel connections.

Roli Binitie Structural Engineer

"Very impressed"

The more I use your software and the further I go with the training the more impressed I am with it.

Bill Goldsack Director at S3DS

"Flexible and time-efficient"

IDEA StatiCa is flexible and time-efficient to use, while allowing accurate design of the most complex connections. We have also found the support team very helpful when we needed assistance

Geoff Morrow Director, StructureMode

"Much wider range of connections"

IDEA StatiCa allows us to design a much wider range of connections, in less time, as well as look into the stiffness behaviour of connections to see how this interacts with the global structural analysis.

Matthew Pearce Principal Engineer at Mott McDonald

"Very helpful"

IDEA StatiCa Connection is a very helpful package for the modeling of a wide range of joints in steel structures. Modeling and interpretation of the results requires an understanding of the forces within a node and is equal to the complexity of the connection.

Gordon Clannachan Senior Structural Engineer at ARUP

"Intuitive & Very Powerful"

Once you have used the software for a while it becomes quite intuitive and therefore much easier to use. It is very powerful in terms of the complexity of connections that it can cope with
