}How to use the link
Open the attached AS Project in Space Gass and run the calculation.
The BIM link should be automatically integrated. You can find it in the top ribbon under Design -> IDEA StatiCa Checkbot. This will open the Checkbot application.
Select the New option with project type Steel, AS design code. Then select Create project.
The new Checkbot project is ready to import connections from Space Gass.
