IDEA StatiCa is happy to announce that we have achieved another milestone: customer number 6000. Recently, we successfully delivered a license to Liphart Steel from Richmond, Virginia. Dave Eckrote, managing director of IDEA StatiCa US, personally delivered the certificate of appreciation.
About Liphart Steel
Liphart Steel boasts a long history. Established in 1938 by Ruben P. Liphart, the company has served as a major structural steel source and miscellaneous metal fabricator for over 84 years.
As a fabricator and erector of structural steel and miscellaneous metal, Liphart has successfully completed hundreds of specialized and innovative projects throughout Virginia and the surrounding Mid-Atlantic States. These projects have been as varied as an ornate circular stairway, a large industrial plant, a multi-story office building, or the steel structure of the Reveille Church.

Thank you from IDEA StatiCa
As IDEA StatiCa successfully grows in the United States, we established a local branch office in Mount Laurel, New Jersey last year.Β
As a thank you, Phil Lutz, Engineering Manager at Liphart Steel, received the certificate of appreciation and gift basket, delivered by our very own Dave Eckrote – Managing Director for the US market.Β
The company purchased the application IDEA StatiCa about a month ago as they needed a solution for handling complexΒ steel connections. They typically hire a connection engineer for their projects. Phil works with them and with their in-house detailers. With the improved IDEA StatiCaΒ Connection Browser, they can share models back and forth very effectively now.

Growing IDEA StatiCa community
IDEA StatiCa community is growing fast! When we announced information about theΒ customer 5000, we had 85 active licenses in the United States. Now, not even a year after, the number has nearly doubled and is still growing.Β
It is nice to see that the number of active users of IDEA StatiCa has grown from 17k to 23k since last June and to 5.4k active licenses!
