COMPLETE DESIGN, ANALYSIS, AND CODE-CHECK, IN MINUTES

DESIGN AND CHECK ATYPICAL DETAILS
Discontinuity areas are often the most difficult to design and analyze. The unique calculation core in IDEA StatiCa Concrete can design and code-check beam details of truly any topology and compile the results into a complete report.

ALL THE ULS/SLS CHECKS YOUR PROJECTS REQUIRE

TDA
Unique 3D time-dependent analysis of creep and shrinkage of concrete represents the real behavior of structure during construction stages and its service life. BIM solution enables the application of this sophisticated analysis also for structural members calculated in 3D models of your FEA software.

Bridge load rating
Automated calculation of bridge load rating for concrete bridges (road and railway) can be performed for both Ultimate and Serviceability limit states. Existing data input for the design process of bridge structure may be used in subsequent bridge load rating analysis. BIM links and effective iterative process significantly save your time.

Fatigue
Determination of stress-range and fatigue resistance considering the fatigue strength of concrete, reinforcement and prestressing reinforcement. Fatigue checks are provided for both road and railway bridges.

Stress limitation
Check of stresses in concrete fibers and reinforcement for short-term and long-term effects.

Decompression
The decompression condition requires position of prestressing reinforcement within concrete in compression.

Torsion
Program automatically calculates the equivalent thin-walled section for torsion check of concrete cross-section with regard to shear reinforcement selected to resist torsion. Concrete and reinforcement is checked.

SIMPLIFY PRESTRESSING PROJECTS
Prestressed materials are exceptionally useful but equally complicated to safety check. IDEA StatiCa Concrete assesses time-dependent analysis, prestressing loss, creep and shrinkage, and non-linear creep so you can properly evaluate any prestressed member and prove its safety to authorities.

COMPLETE REPORTS. ONE TOOL
Working with multiple tools to generate all the checks for your reports takes up a lot of time. IDEA StatiCa Concrete generates and compiles ultimate and serviceability state checks (including interaction and fire resistance) into fully scalable and customizable reports.

COMPLETE DESIGN, ANALYSIS AND CODE-CHECK, IN MINUTES

OPTIMIZE REINFORCEMENT
IDEA StatiCa deals efficiently with all discontinuity regions such as walls, dapped ends, openings, hangings, brackets, and areas above supports. IDEA StatiCa lets you analyze any concrete detail and determine how much reinforcement is needed and where.

ALL THE ULS/SLS CHECKS YOUR PROJECTS REQUIRE

Response N-M-M
Response of cross-section represents the stress-strain state of all cross-section components. It provides clear and detailed information about the behavior and utilization of cross-section. Response N-M-M analysis provides results for further interaction check of all internal forces.

Nonlinear creep
Time-dependent analysis (TDA) enables to determine nonlinear creep effect. Such a functionality results in more realistic results and enables more economic design with regard to stress limitation checks.

Construction stages
Predefined construction stages are provided depending on type of structure.

Stress limitation
Check of stresses in concrete fibers and reinforcement for short-term and long-term effects.

Interaction
Interaction of all components of internal forces is checked (N, My, Mz, Vz, Vy, T).

Deflection check
Deflection check of reinforced and prestressed concrete girders with the effect of cracking, concrete age (modulus of elasticity), creep, and shrinkage.

COMPLETE REPORTS. ONE TOOL
Working with multiple tools to generate all the checks for your reports takes up a lot of time. IDEA StatiCa Concrete generates and compiles ultimate and serviceability state checks (including interaction and fire resistance) into fully scalable and customizable reports.
