Static structural analysis is the computational process of determining how a building's load-bearing elements respond to acting permanent, variable and climatic loads. The process takes into account the stiffness, geometry and interconnection of the elements. Static analysis involves the determination of internal forces, displacements, deflections and the load carrying capacity of individual elements, as well as an assessment of their work in the structural system.
It is an essential design phase for timber, steel and reinforced concrete structures, The analysis allows the selection of appropriate sections, types of connectors, locations of supports and bracing solutions. The results of the analysis make it possible to confirm that the building will be safe, stable and will meet the standard requirements throughout its lifetime.
