The scope of this webinar, the pinned anchoring of the main timber frame, was designed back in 2014. The code-check according to Eurocode was performed using the self-made MS Excel spreadsheets and simple paper calculations. With the new feature in IDEA StatiCa 20.0, the design and code-check of timber connections is much easier and provides its native fast optimization capacity.
The anchoring detail was now remodeled and optimized in IDEA StatiCa Connection resulting in material savings of about 2,000 EUR just for this particular structural detail within the whole project. Do you wonder, how this could be accomplished? Join the Connection Wednesdays webinar and meet the future approach to the design of connections in timber constructions happening today.

The Aquarena Elements was designed as a part of the luxury X-BIONIC® resort in Samorin, Slovakia. The whole complex is composed of attractive timber constructions. The swimming pool hall spans over approx. 55 x 37 m with a height of 11 m. The wooden structure consists of twelve main pinned frames of arched shape with a distance of 5 m. Each frame consists of two struts and one rung, which are connected by a semi-rigid joint. Wooden struts are inserted between the frames, which together with the steel rods ensure spatial rigidity.
