IDEA StatiCa US’s office is located in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, just outside of Philadelphia, PA. It is led by Dave Eckrote, an experienced structural engineer and manager.
We would like to thank our current US customers of IDEA StatiCa for putting trust in us and helping us to shape the product for the US market. Our unique solution for steel connection design has revolutionized the way 5000+ engineering offices and fabricators around the world work. The main purpose of IDEA StatiCa US is to be as close to our US customers as possible – in technical support, customer feedback and working with the engineering community.
Here is what one of our customers, Jason McCool of Robbins Engineering Consultants, thinks.
“Since I first started using IDEA StatiCa Connection in 2017, I have been consistently pleased with it. It starts at a higher, more versatile level than any of the other connection design software I’ve used in the past. The customer support is more responsive, and the developers just keep improving the program instead of resting on their past success. I’m looking forward to seeing their growing presence here in the US with the opening of their new office near Philadelphia.”
