How to run IDEA StatiCa Connection for the first time
Design joint resistance - ratio of maximal load to the design load. Capacity design - check the connection on the maximal moment which can be taken by connected member. Stiffness analysis - initial stiffness and deformation capacity of any connected member. Buckling analysis - local buckling of any plate in the connection. Several design codes support (EN, AISC-LRFD, AISC-ASD, CISC, AS, SP, GB, HKG, IS). Nonlinear analysis of steel profiles and plates, bolts in tension and shear, welds. General cross-section - welded sections composed of any number of different profiles. More joints in one project, complete code-checks, overall report, bill of material, drawings. Cuts, stiffeners, wideners, ribs, openings, end plates, fin plates, gusset plates, stubs, cleats.
Welded/bolted connections, base plate, footing, anchoring.
It works as a standalone application as well as the next step in workflow started in programs Autodesk® Advance Steel ®, Autodesk® Revit® and Autodesk® Robot™ Structural Analysis Professional. IDEA StatiCa Connection enables engineers to analyze, design and check steel connections/joints of any topology and loading.
