Understanding Gusset Plate Design Fundamentals In the world of structural engineering and construction, Gusset plate play a vital role in connecting and stabilising various structural elements. This article delves into the fundamental idea and considerations of gusset plate design. Whether you`re
We are delighted to announce that IDEA StatiCa UK – for the 5th consecutive year – is sponsoring the iStructE Structural Awards 2022, one of the most prestigious events in the world for structural engineering.
The Structural Awards 2022 shortlist brings together the best engineering projects from the past year, with a focus on sustainability, social impact, innovation, and ingenuity.
This year has been a complete overhaul of entry criteria and judging categories, to better reflect the changing responsibilities and requirements of structural engineering worldwide.
We are thrilled to announce that IDEA StatiCa UK has been named in the finalist of this year`s prestigious Construction Computing Awards. Our commitment to innovation in structural engineering design software and excellence in serving structural engineers has been recognized
When: Tuesday, 11th July 2023, 09:00am – 10:00am (BST) Participation: Free, registration required This webinar in cooperation with the IStructE, aims to introduce the participant the fire design challenges of the new Building Safety Act, and the new technologies available through
Connection stiffness is a crucial aspect of a structure’s design because, ultimately, the behavior of connected members should align with the assumptions initially made by the structure designer. Stiffness classification – rigid or semi-rigid? In this webinar, we will briefly
Coupling beams are an important load-bearing element for structural engineers looking to improve the structural integrity of a variety of buildings. In this article, I will look at how to choose an appropriate coupling beam type for specific projects and
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.
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.
This three half-day e-conference explores how to use steel in an effective and sustainable way. Industry leaders from Arup, BCSA, COWI, and SCI – among many others – share best practices in design, fabrication, and reuse.
This webinar, in collaboration with IstructE, introduces the attendees to advanced fire design concepts for steel connections and steel/concrete members with the use of advanced CBFEM models and the corresponding analysis types.
