APEX USE CASE

Challenge

A structural engineering firm is tasked with designing Apex moment connections for a steel building. The project specifications require the connections to efficiently transmit shear, moment, and axial force while adhering to industry standards and project-specific requirements.

Solution

The structural engineering firm utilizes Prokon Apex to design Apex moment connections, critical components for transferring shear, moment, and axial force in steel buildings. They input project specifications and select appropriate connection types, defining parameters such as beam size and loading conditions. Prokon Apex then generates optimized connection designs based on industry standards and project-specific requirements.

Results

With Prokon Apex, the firm efficiently designs moment connections that meet structural requirements while optimizing material usage and construction costs. The software streamlines the design process, enabling quick iteration and evaluation of design options, resulting in high-quality, code-compliant connections for the steel building.
