In this tutorial, you will learn how to create an IOM file from a template and work with it in Grasshopper 3D.

If you work with IDEA StatiCa version up to 24.1.3, see this tutorial.

Grasshopper - Instalace pluginu

Zkušební verzi programů Rhino3d a Grasshopper můžete získat na webových stránkách Rhino3d. Spusťte program RhinoCeros a vyberte šablonu s velikostí měřítka v Metrech:

Do příkazového řádku zadejte "Package Manager":

Zobrazí se nové okno; vyberte IDEAStatiCa a klikněte na tlačítko Install. Zásuvný modul se stáhne a nainstaluje. Aby se stal aktivním, je nutné restartovat systém Rhinoceros.

Chcete-li spustit program Grasshopper se zásuvným modulem IDEA StatiCa, vyberte na kartě Rhihoceros položku Tools / Grasshopper.

Jak vidíte, zásuvný modul je již začleněn.

Informace o komponentách a příkazech modulu IDEA StatiCa pro Grasshopper najdete v článku Popis komponent modulu Grasshopper.

IDEA StatiCa Connection - Design of a joint and IOM export

For the example, you will create a simple moment connection using a template:

To be able to work with IOM, it is necessary to enable the Developer tab in Preferences / Advance Settings:

Finally, you can save this connection under the name Example1.ideaCon and also export this connection to the IOM file Example1.xml.

Grasshopper - Import the IOM file, display the joint in Rhino, and see the calculation results

Since version 24.1.4, IDEA StatiCa came with a new API, described here.

To run grasshopper scripts, it is necessary to add to every file a component Connection Service Runner, which can be found in IDEA StatiCa / App Common.

Create a new document, select the tab Params in the upper ribbon, and place the component File Path on the Canvas.

Right-click on the component and select the file we saved before:

Note: If you open the attached file, you must change this path accordingly.

Now add the following components to the canvas and connect them as seen in the picture.

IDEA StatiCa / Open Model / Import IOM File
IDEA StatiCa / Open Model / Deconstruct Open Model
IDEA StatiCa / Connection / Create Connection from IOM
IDEA StatiCa / Connection / Calculate Project
IDEA StatiCa / Connection / Deconstruct Result Item
Params / Input / Boolean Toggle
Params / Input / Boolean Toggle
Params / Input / Panel

To run the calculation and get visible results, double-click on False/True. As you added the component Deconstruct Open Model, you can also see the contours of the joint in the Rhinoceros.
