SDS2 is one of the most used detailing software in the United States and Canada. Now you can transfer all connection elements via our direct link between SDS2 and IDEA StatiCa Checkbot.

The Link provides the ability for users to directly transfer fully detailed connections in either a single or bulk selection manner. The user can transfer connection elements such as bolts, welds, stiffeners, and plate cuts modeled in SDS2 detailing tool directly into IDEA StatiCa Checkbot and further into the Connection app.

The integration is displayed in the list of fully supported third-party software during the BIM installation process.

A comprehensive description of the IDEA plugin for SDS2 is presented on this webpage.
