About the Strand7 plugin

You can select any number of steel connections and members in Strand7 and export them to IDEA StatiCa for structural design and code-checking so you can model, design, load, and check steel connections of any topology and loading. All beams, cross-sections, and internal forces are also completely synchronized if the Strand7 model changes. IDEA StatiCa and Strand7 give you an efficient workflow for your structural steel that saves time, minimizes errors, helps with optimization, and makes the data available to your colleagues or subcontractors doing detailing and fabrication.
