Although IDEA StatiCa 24.0 is certainly a bumper release, I thought I would share with you just some of the highlights.
Speed up your connection designs
Our Steel Connection application sees the addition of parametric templates, which substantially reduce the time you need to design standard connections by up to 80%. Also, the expansion of our Connection Library to over one million items (yes, you read that number correctly), complete with new filters, ensures you always have free access to a vast database of connection designs that are ready for you to browse, choose, and use in your projects.

Optimized bolts and welds
With IDEA StatiCa 24.0, you can look forward to new advanced one-click weld sizing, including full strength and overstrength options, alongside auto-design capabilities for bolts in shear connections. These innovations streamline the complex process of ensuring optimal strength and efficiency in your structural connections.

The evolution of 3D concrete detail design
Concrete detail design takes a massive leap forward with the Beta introduction of 3D modeling capabilities for footings and walls, allowing for out-of-plane load analysis. This new solution provides you with insights into the real behavior of structural elements that had previously been difficult (and many times impossible) for you to model before. We are giving you early access to this Beta version to try out for yourself while we continue putting it through its paces in our rigorous verification process. This is accessible to current users with the latest version and valid maintenance. If you fulfill the prerequisites, you can request free access by clicking the Beta Detail icon in the Connection app ribbon, which will take you to , where you complete the form and request to join the Beta program and get free access to 3D Detail.
