Component based Baseplate design with Profis Engineering

Presented live in June 2025

Want to design safer and more optimized baseplate solutions? Component-Based Finite Element Method (CBFEM), a trusted calculation approach for structural connection design, adopted by IDEA StatiCa and HILTI PROFIS Engineering Suite, CBFEM enables precise analysis and design of steel and concrete connections and the ability to assess real-world behavior, including prying effects. This comprehensive interface covers the design of crucial elements like welds, stiffeners, baseplates, and concrete checks.
