Master your connections - Shear Connections

This third part of the Master your Connection series targets IDEA StatiCa users that are new to the software that would like to know the features and basic settings of the Connection application. 

Discovering how to utilize the IDEA StatiCa Connection application is regarded as a straightforward and effortless process. Although it is crucial to grasp certain fundamental concepts for precise model when designing. 

Join us for the webinar where we'll explore the reasons for changing force position, the appropriate model type for a member, and learn how to determine if a connection should be rigid or pinned!

The topic of shear connections and the position of the shear force is also discussed in more detail in the article When a shear connection transmit a bending moment.

Master your connections webinar series

Master your connections is a series of five short webinars for (not only) beginners to get quickly familiar with the IDEA StatiCa Connection application. 

From the very first steps to using the BIM links, learn how to use the software to be more efficient, and ensure the safe design of your steel connections.

There will be five webinars with relevant content:

• July 11, 2024 - Getting Started - setting up a license, shared settings, learning UI, design and code-check
• July 25, 2024 - Moment connections - ways of modeling moment connections, analyzing the results
• August 08, 2024 - Shear Connections - creating shear/pinned connections, load position, model type
• August 22, 2024 - Complex connections - designing operations and templates, effective modeling
• September 5, 2024 - BIM links - CAD and FEA links, workflows, link between IDEA StatiCa Connection and IDEA StatiCa 3D Detail
