How do you ensure the stability of slender concrete columns, while maintaining both economic feasibility and safety in the design? This article explains how IDEA StatiCa Member empowers designers to maximize the potential of their reinforced concrete structures through a streamlined and efficient workflow.
Enhance concrete structural design with IDEA StatiCa Detail’s contemporary, user-friendly interface; a professional routine highlight, streamlining your design process.
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
Structural engineers have to balance their load-bearing structure designs to be economical and safe. Nowadays, they need to deal with more and more slender and subtle structures either due to saving costs or satisfying architectural requirements. Introduction What goes through
IDEA StatiCa has co-operated with Professor Walter Kaufmann and his team at ETH Zurich on the verification and validation of its concrete applications since 2016. In January 2021, Professor Kaufmann published on the ETH website a blog post related to truss models. With his kind permission, we take over and link the article.
At IDEA StatiCa, we don’t simply improve the structural design methods, we reinvent them! Our IDEA StatiCa Detail application is able to analyze and design any concrete discontinuity region using the new method CSFM (Continuous Stress Field Method) that eliminates the shortcomings and simplifications of the strut and tie analogy.
