IDEA StatiCa Quick Tip: How to perform Stiffness Analysis to improve global model accuracy
When performing a global analysis of a steel structure, engineers typically assume connections are either fully rigid or pinned. While this simplifies the analysis, real-world connections often exhibit some flexibility. By accurately determining the stiffness of a joint using IDEA StatiCa’s Stiffness Analysis capabilities, engineers can optimize their designs for weight, utilization, and cost!
