  • Solving RFIs Fast: Retrofitting and On-Site Fixes in Structural Design

    Solving RFIs Fast: Retrofitting and On-Site Fixes in Structural Design
    Apr 3 2025

    In this episode, we explore how modern tools are helping structural engineers resolve RFIs quickly—especially when it comes to retrofitting and site modifications. From last-minute changes in anchor layouts to non-standard base plate geometries and missing reinforcement, field conditions rarely match the original design.

    We unpack how IDEA StatiCa enables engineers to analyze and validate non-standard details with speed and confidence. Learn how to cut down turnaround time on RFIs, tackle undocumented fixes, and support contractors with practical, code-compliant solutions—without overdesign or delay.
