You can select any concrete member or part of the whole SAP2000 model and export it to IDEA StatiCa for structural designing. All the members, cross-sections, and internal forces are also completely synchronized if the SAP2000 model changes. IDEA StatiCa and SAP2000 give you an efficient workflow for your structural concrete design that saves time, minimizes errors, and opens up optimization possibilities.
There are two ways to connect IDEA StatiCa and SAP2000.
SAP2000 to IDEA StatiCa Beam
The first way is to directly connect the selected beam from SAP2000 to IDEA StatiCa Beam, where the reinforcement or complex prestressing design, including TDA, is possible.
You can select any concrete member or part of the whole SAP2000 model and export it to IDEA StatiCa for structural designing. All the members, cross-sections, and internal forces are also completely synchronized if the SAP2000 model changes. IDEA StatiCa and SAP2000 give you an efficient workflow for your structural concrete design that saves time, minimizes errors, and opens up optimization possibilities.
SAP 2000 to IDEA StatiCa Checkbot
The second option is to export part of the structure or the whole structure into IDEA StatiCa Member through Checkbot.
The BIM link is managed by Checkbot – an application for the management of BIM workflows. This means:
You do not need anything special to get started – just download and install both applications on the same PC, and activate the BIM link in a few easy steps. And you can start exporting and designing concrete members right away.
All BIM workflows between IDEA StatiCa and SAP2000 are now managed by IDEA StatiCa Checkbot – follow this Integration guide of BIM link for SAP2000 versions v23 and newer.
We strongly recommend running the latest version of IDEA StatiCa and SAP2000 to ensure the best compatibility.
