Case Study: ASK ROMEIN delivers the EDGE Amsterdam West dome with IDEA StatiCa Connection

ASK ROMEIN completes EDGE Amsterdam West dome in 1 year with IDEA StatiCa

The construction company ASK Romein faced significant challenges in engineering the complex steel connections for the large glass dome atop the EDGE Amsterdam West building. They needed to process immense amounts of data for numerous unique nodes where multiple beams met at different angles and forces, a task nearly impossible to perform reliably by hand. To solve this, they utilized IDEA StatiCa Connection to import data, model standard connection details, and check the capacity of every critical node with precision.

Using IDEA StatiCa, ASK Romein efficiently calculated and code-checked all normative connection situations, ensuring the structure's stability and reliability. This allowed the project to be completed on schedule in Q3 2021, transforming the building's inner garden into a spectacular light-filled atrium. The successful delivery of this complex structure earned ASK Romein the IDEA StatiCa Excellence Award in the Large Building category for 2021.
