Top Structural Engineering Articles & Webinars of 2025 | IDEA StatiCa

Acest articol este disponibil și în:
This year, our team explored a wide range of topics—from in-depth technical articles to interactive, engineer-led webinars. As we look ahead to what’s next, we took a moment to reflect on what resonated most with engineers across the United States. Below, you’ll find the most-read articles and most-viewed webinars of 2025.

1. Verification of Concrete Members with Discontinuities

  • The Ohio State University conducted research which confirmed the Compatible Stress Field Method to validate reinforced concrete design
  • Research authors Md. Ferdous Wahid, Ph.D., Ali Nassiri, Ph.D., and Halil Sezen, Ph.D. share the verification results in the full article below

2. Steel Beam-to-Concrete Connection Design

  • Review the steel beam-to-concrete structure joint and how to transfer forces into the concrete wall/beam/column
  • Verify that the designed reinforcement can withstand the forces 
  • Explore the integration of IDEA StatiCa applications to design structural details combining steel and concrete 

3. Single Tool for Complete Base Plate Workflow

  • Model, analyze, and verify anchor reinforcement quickly
  • Bridge the gap between steel connection design and reinforced concrete detailing for safer, more efficient solutions

4. AISC 358 Prequalified Moment Connection Checks

  • Explore how IDEA StatiCa integrates into the design process of prequalified connections to efficiently assess key behavioral characteristics
  • Learn more about how to model prequalified connections for more confident, code-compliant design

5. Complete Code-Check of Anchors and Concrete Block in Detail 3D (ACI)

  • Use StatiCa Detail 3D to analyze load transfer, visualize reinforcement behavior, and verify ACI-defined tension and shear failure modes in detail
  • Take a reliable, code-aligned anchorage design approach, even for the most demanding applications
