Transmission towers are vital components of the transmission line. The connection design, including all aspects, such as stress/strain, buckling, bolts, and weld checks, plays a crucial role in ensuring the tower's safety and reliability.

In this webinar, we'll cover the whole design workflow, explaining how to be more efficient. From importing your global FEA model with results into IDEA StatiCa Checkbot to designing specific connections, including anchoring. 

You will learn how to model a complex connection with multiple members and bracings and utilize the capabilities of parametric templates to automate the design process. 

In addition, you will see how using the new connection grouping and bulk design functionality in IDEA StatiCa Checkbot saves time when working on projects with multiple repetitive connections.

Suppose the anchoring check fails due to a concrete failure, typically a concrete cone or edge failure. In that case, you will learn how to calculate the footing with the real influence of the reinforcement in the concrete foundation block to avoid overdesign and comply with the code.

If you want to be more efficient, manage the design of all connections, from simple to complex, covering also footings in one place, and ensure safe and optimized design using the best modern tools, join the session, and calculate your yesterday's estimate easily.
