What structural engineers say about IDEA StatiCa?

I used IDEA StatiCa to perform a peer review on the connections for a 38m tall timber arches spanning over 38m. IDEA StatiCa allowed me to analyse these connections in detail, identifying areas in the connections with had higher stresses than others. IDEA StatiCa played a crucial role in ensuring robust and efficient connections for this unique structure.

IDEA StatiCa saves everyone a lot of time. Specifically, the ease at which you can pick it up and level of detail that you can view the analysis results, rather than jumping in and sketching out the connections. Afterwards, you can send the file directly to the draftsman.

We primarily use IDEA StatiCa for steel connection design, particularly complex steel connections. Prior to that, we had to rationalize complex connections into a more simplified approach. Now, we can analyze those in one go and get a better outcome. We are definitely more optimized with IDEA StatiCa.

I would definitely recommend IDEA StatiCa to other engineers. The most convenient aspect for us is that engineers from other countries are familiar with IDEA StatiCa. The results are reliable.

IDEA StatiCa has become a crucial tool in our workflow, offering powerful features like finite element analysis for complex connections and comprehensive code-based compliance checks. Its seamless integration with Tekla Structures and other analysis software simplifies the process of importing connection geometry and loading data.

I worked on the Sydney Football Stadium where I was the lead of the roof design. What I find quite useful about IDEA StatiCa is that it is quite a rapid tool. Once you have templates set up, it is really quick to pull the same sort of design on different applications and get pretty quick results that are accurate. Basically, to do a similar thing in a finite element analysis software takes a fair bit of time. But in IDEA StatiCa, it is actually quite quick.
