Thank you for a successful evening event on practical workflows in frame analysis and connection design
Thank you to everyone who joined us in Lysaker for the Norwegian Steel Association evening event, “Practical Workflows in Frame Analysis and Connection Design.”
We hope you enjoyed the presentations and the opportunity to meet industry colleagues during the breaks.
Parametric workflows for complex geometry at the new Drammen City Bridge
The new Drammen City Bridge presents slim, clean lines and a welcoming expression for pedestrians and drivers alike. Behind the surface, however, lies curved and twisting geometry, congested reinforcement, and late design changes added to an already demanding design. From an early phase, the team at Degree of Freedom chose a fully parametric approach to make it all come together.
Tekla Component for Nordic Fastening Group’s Welding Plates
To simplify the modeling and ordering process for standard welding plates, we’ve developed a custom Tekla component specifically for Nordic Fastening Group’s SPS and SPK plate types. The component is now available for download via the Tekla Warehouse!
KI Consulting Engineers: A “nothing is impossible” mindset with a matching toolkit
Meeting the demands of modern structural engineering means tighter timelines, more complex geometries, and higher expectations for transparency. KI Consulting Engineers meet them with the right tools and a mindset that turns into method!
Anchoring in IDEA StatiCa 25.1—A complete workflow for steel-to-concrete connections!
With version 25.1 IDEA StatiCa 25.1 have matured into a comprehensive, practical toolkit to design, analyze, and verify every part of a steel-to-concrete connection within a single environment, with full control over anchor types, stand-off conditions, and code compliance.
See you at the Steel Days 2025 in the Nordics?
The "Steel Days" 2025 events are just around the corner in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. These national events are key gatherings for structural engineers, steel detailers, and professionals involved in steel construction.
Pretec Modul Plus Norway: An app to verify and enrich bolt data in Tekla Structures
Ensure your bolts are deliverable and your model data complete – directly inside Tekla Structures: The Pretec Modul Pluss Norway app connects Tekla Structures to Pretec’s bolt catalogue, allowing you to verify that the bolts used in your model exist in Pretec’s current product range.
Experiences from NYMO: Using AR in Fabrication of Offshore Structures
At NYMO, augmented reality has become a practical tool in daily fabrication work. Using Trimble Connect and Trimble SiteVision, engineers can bring the 3D model into the field to check assembly, detect errors earlier, and document findings directly on site.
Parametric design in IDEA StatiCa - Offshore structure example!
In this video guide and tutorial, Lukas Juricek from IDEA StatiCa demonstrates how to run a parametric study on a stiffened steel connection (offshore structure example) using the software’s Developer Mode and REST API.
How Nordic Fastening Group uses Tekla plugins to support designers
Nordic Fastening Group (NFG) now offers a plugin (developed by BuildingPoint Scandinavia) for their customers to helps engineers model bracing rod systems directly in Tekla Structures—accurately, efficiently, and with built-in product data!
In the video above and in this article we explain the benefits of using plugins and custom compoents, and demonstrate exactly HOW you use NFG’s plugin!
Master anchoring & footing design with IDEA StatiCa
Are you ready to take your anchoring and footing designs to the next level? In this recorded webinar we dive deep into the latest advancements in IDEA StatiCa version 24.1, a very powerful tool for accurate, conservative, and verified design of complex steel-to-concrete connections.
NYMO - Adapting Offshore Engineering and Fabrication for the Future
The offshore engineering and fabrication industry faces challenges but also opportunities, both technologically and in the marketplace. In this article, based on a conversation with Mikkel Erichsen, Rune Johannesen, and Kjetil Kile, we explore how AS NYMO navigates these challenges, builds on its strengths, and prepares for the future!
