Case Study: ET-Global halves complex connection design time with IDEA StatiCa

ET-Global cuts complex connection design time by 50% with IDEA StatiCa

ET-Global, a specialized engineering consultancy operating exclusively in the mining sector, faced challenges in efficiently verifying complex, heavily loaded steel connections for mining infrastructure using traditional hand calculations. The process was time-consuming and difficult to review consistently, which increased the effort required for engineering due diligence. To strengthen confidence in their designs without overhauling their existing Strand7 workflow, they sought a specialized solution, leading them to the IDEA StatiCa Connection software.

By implementing IDEA StatiCa Connection, ET-Global integrated a flexible and cost-effective solution that complemented their established processes. The software allowed engineers to visualize component behavior under load and utilize advanced stress-strain analysis. As a result, IDEA StatiCa helped the company cut design time for complex connections by approximately half, significantly boosting engineering confidence while maintaining rigorous verification standards.
