A cargo steel hall is designed and analyzed in an FEA application, then the data are imported to IDEA StatiCa Checkbot where all the specific steel connections are designed and checked in the Connection app. Exporting selected connection models into IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) format allows then to import the connection designs into any CAD software.

The process is described in the article Complete connection design workflow - from FEA to IFC and CAD.

Global structure prepared in Autodesk Robot, joints in IDEA StatiCa Connection app, process managed through IDEA StatiCa Checkbot.
