Overview
IDEA StatiCa Connection can design all types of welded or bolted connections, base plates, footing and anchoring. It provides precise checks, results of strength, stiffness and buckling analysis of a steel joint. Bolts, welds and concrete blocks are checked according to EN/AISC/CISC/AU/SP 16. Templates for most-used connections are available as well as wide range of predefined hot rolled and sheet welded members.
WHY IDEA StatiCa?
