Learn how IDEA StatiCa's advanced Stiffness analysis can precisely classify your steel connections, ensuring that your structural designs perform as intended with complete confidence.
Learn how to set up the stiffness analysis in IDEA StatiCa
Classify your steel connection type: Simple, partially or fully restrained
Calculate rotational stiffness
Use the stiffness results to update the global structural design
Join us as we walk through a sample frame project to demonstrate how Stiffness analysis can be effectively integrated into your design process.
What to Expect:
Structural Analysis: Weโll begin by reviewing the connection assumptions and member end-force results from a sample project.
Connection Design: Next, weโll design the connections in IDEA StatiCa, where Stiffness analysis will generate a moment-rotation diagram, providing key values such as rotational stiffness and connection classification.
Design Comparison: Using the stiffness analysis results, weโll recalculate the frame design and compare it with the original design to illustrate the impact of incorporating calculated stiffness.
Since the internal force distribution is influenced by member stiffness, itโs crucial for connection designers to ensure the correct connection type is selected.
The participants who attend the live webinar will receive a certificate of attendance.
