Getting started
Approved connections in three steps
From first touch to real results, without the guesswork.
Import your model
Bring geometry and loads in directly from SAP2000, ETABS, STAAD.Pro, RISA 3D, RAM Structural Systems, or 40+ other tools via BIM links.
Design and check
Model the connection visually or from a template. CBFEM runs the full ULS and SLS checks to AISC, ACI, and other national standards.
Report and iterate
Generate a code-checked report in 3 clicks. Change the design and the checks update, so iterations cost minutes, not days.
What you get
From first model to approved report, fast
Everything you need to design, optimize, and code-check connections without leaving your workflow.
Predefined templates for simple connections
Start from ready-made templates so routine joints take minutes, not hours.
Bulk-checking of similar connections
Check groups of similar joints in one run instead of one at a time.
Parametric and visual modeling
Model moderate and complex connections visually, with parametric templates you can reuse.
Connection Library with 1M+ joints
Adapt and reuse real-world joints instead of building every connection from scratch.
Concrete walls and D-regions of any shape
Design walls and D-regions with openings and dapped ends, under any load.
Optimize reinforcement and material usage
Detailed visual results show where to trim reinforcement layout and steel without guessing.
ULS and SLS checks in one report
Code-checked reports to the latest AISC, ACI, and other national standards, ready for approval in 3 clicks.
Direct import from RISA 3D, RAM, STAAD.Pro
BIM links pull your model data straight in, minimizing errors and repetitive remodeling.
Proof
Results from real projects
“It saved me a lot of time and work.”
“The software allows stress analysis of very complex connections.”
“It can calculate connections with more than three bars in a node.”

Licensing, answered
How does IDEA StatiCa licensing work?+
Licenses are online and account-based. We create a cloud license server for each customer, and you access the license from any device with your email credentials. Standard licenses allow up to 7 users per license product; enterprise licenses are unlimited.
Is there a single or network configuration?+
No. All licenses use floating seats. You can switch devices, return the license to the pool, share it with colleagues, and work from the office, home, or on the road.
What is the difference between a subscription and a perpetual license?+
A perpetual license is a time-unlimited entitlement, but maintenance must be purchased on top and renewed annually to receive new versions and technical support. A subscription is time-limited and automatically includes maintenance, and can be extended or expanded with more seats as your needs grow.
How does maintenance work?+
Maintenance gives you two things: technical issues solved by our in-house specialists, and access to the current version, with two major releases plus minor updates per year. It is included in all subscription licenses and must be purchased separately for perpetual licenses. If an older perpetual license has no maintenance, an upgrade to the current version is required before buying maintenance for the next period.
Is the license country-limited?+
Yes. Standard licenses can only be used in the country specified at purchase, usually the billing address country. Multinational usage is available with the Enterprise license.
What do the displayed prices cover?+
Prices show the range across all available products for one floating seat license. Subscription prices are shown for the 12-month option, and more subscription periods are available via quote request.
