We are very pleased to announce that one more leading consultancy firm in the UK, has chosen IDEA StatiCa to explore its possibilities for the design of Steel Connections. Curtins is an award winning, leading consultancy firm with 14 offices across the UK and Ireland, with a rich heritage that spans nearly 60 years, and well known for their work as civil and structural engineers, but also for other key services such as environmental, infrastructure, transport planning and geotechnical.

Hilti Group and IDEA StatiCa s.r.o. have entered into a software development agreement focusing on a component-based, finite element method (CBFEM) for anchoring/footing topologies to help improve workflow efficiency.

It is always nice to see how IDEA StatiCa is helping structural engineers to move the limits of steel connection design, and in this article published in Civil + Structural Engineer magazine, you can read how one AED – a pioneering Scottish engineering design specialist – has used IDEA StatiCa and what they say about it.

Today, we are proud and happy to share a LinkedIn post by Eduardo Nuñez Castellanos, Professor at the University of Chile.

The European Convention for Constructional Steelwork ECCS created Charles Massonnet Award to recognize a prominent scientist who highly contributed to the advancement of scientific and technical support to constructional steelwork, and who had worked or is working in a Technical Committee of ECCS as a Full Member, as a Chairman or as Secretary of one of the mentioned committees. The Charles Massonnet Award is presented every year by an ECCS member association.

We are proud to announce that IDEA StatiCa has been chosen by Severfield plc to help the design department further improve the design process for steel connection design.

New Steel Construction magazine (NSC) published a very interesting article about the redevelopment of Waterloo Station in London, where 2 of our customers (Mott MacDonald and Bourne Steel) were involved. IDEAStatiCa was used extensively in this project and helped to overcome the big challenges of this project.

In less than 3 years since the official lunch of IDEA StatiCa in the UK, we are delighted to have as our customers 6 out of the 10 TOP UK Steel Fabricators.

Not only the user interface of IDEA StatiCa Connection, our Resource Center got a new face as well! Check it out…

Plenty of tutorials, sample projects, FAQs, theoretical background and verification documents – for steel as well as for concrete products.
