CoP
Connection Design
CoP is an innovative application for the calculation of structural joints in
steel construction.
CoP is based on the component method that allows for a complete understanding of
the joint behavior. As a result joints may be easily modified (reinforced,
stiffened or optimized) according to the requirements of the users. This usually
leads to a more economic structural design, as the joints are known to
contribute up to 50% of the global cost of the structure.
Key Features
- Connection designs are fully compliant with the latest
versions of EC3, DIN 18800 and BS5950-2000
- CoP is used to design joints with simple connections and
continuous or semi-continuous connections
- Powerful project control function allows Engineers to use a stand alone
license to design the connections for a StruCad
model
- The full set of designed connections are allocated a joint number that refers
to their position in the model. The
connections can then be e-mail to a StruCad Detailer
- Using the connection references allocated by the Engineer the StruCad Detailer
can simply drop the designed
connections onto the relevant points in the model and have them automatically
detailed ready for fabrication.
