We would like to invite you to the STRUCTURE sponsored webinar organized in cooperation with the NCSEA. During the webinar, you’ll learn how to model, analyze, and code-check steel base plates and anchoring systems in a more streamlined, efficient workflow.
Watch the webinar and learn about
Designing steel base plates on concrete pedestals presents a number of structural challenges, including concrete breakout, anchor pullout, and complex load transfer mechanisms. Traditional anchoring design approaches, while safe, often lead to overly conservative results that increase material usage, construction complexity, and overall project costs.
In this technical webinar, we’ll walk through how to overcome these limitations using IDEA StatiCa — a powerful design tool that seamlessly connects steel and concrete design.
This webinar is organized in cooperation with NCSEA and STRUCTURE magazine.
