About IDEA StatiCa

We develop software for structural engineers and detailers. Our development team researches, tests, and applies new methods of analyzing the behaviour of structures and their members. Based on this, we created IDEA StatiCa – software that enables engineers to work faster, evaluate requirements of the national code thoroughly, and use the optimal amount of material. For us, creating software is a way to contribute to making every new construction around the world safer and cheaper.

IStructE online course – Advanced analysis types for Steel Connections

Our last course in cooperation with the Institution of Structural Engineers for 2022 is a must-see for anyone who is not familiar with advanced analysis types for steel connections available in the context of CBFEM, such as buckling, stiffness, joint resistance, capacity (seismic design) and fatigue. Practical application of these methods will be demonstrated through #IDEAStatiCa and various worked examples.

Webinar – Design of coupling beams in shear walls

Shear walls are essential elements of structures, especially in high-rise buildings. When designing a shear wall with openings, it’s crucial to focus on the coupling beams since they can significantly affect the building’s lateral resistance capacity. Join this webinar to learn more about coupling beams, and how to code-check them quickly and easily in the IDEA StatiCa Detail application.

Meet us at the SCI Annual Event 2022

After 2 years, the annual event of the Steel Construction Institute (SCI) is back as a live event, and we are very excited to participate again as exhibitors. If you want to meet us in person, and also follow the presentations that will take place, then don’t miss this date!
The theme for this year is “How getting the joints right can save money, save material, and avoid failures”
A number of presentations will focus on the theme for the day – how getting the joints right can save money, save material, and avoid failures. Powerful tools enable us to do exciting things, but care is needed. Complex joints need careful thought and communication and may be facilitated by different manufacturing techniques.

Stability of slender RC precast columns

Prefabricated members are often very slender in order to minimize their weight, to optimize the material and, last but not least, to improve the aesthetic aspect of the whole building.   But how to deal with the stability of precast
