This example describes how to define a steel frame in IOM (IDEA StatiCa Open Model). In the project IOM.SteelFrame.csproj there is the source code of example which shows how to generate idea connection project by a webservice. In the project IOM.SteelFrameDesktop.csproj there is the source code of example which shows how to generate idea connection project by sing local installation of Idea StatiCa.
Let's create a standard console application in MS Visual Studio. Select File > New > Project from the menu bar. In the dialog, select the Visual C# node followed by the Get Started node. Then select the Console App project template.
OpenModel is published as the nuget package. To install this package, you can use either the Package Manager UI or the Package Manager Console.
For more information, see Install and use a package in Visual Studio
There is also documentation related to IdeaRS.OpenModel on Github.
The geometrical model of the steel structure which you can see in the picture below will be created in this step. The model consists of several columns and beams.
A basic information about our project - such as a project name, a description etc.
// create new instance of the open model
model.OriginSettings = new OriginSettings();
model.OriginSettings.CrossSectionConversionTable = CrossSectionConversionTable.SCIA;
model.OriginSettings.CountryCode = CountryCode.ECEN;
model.OriginSettings.ProjectName = "Project";
model.OriginSettings.Author = "IDEA StatiCa s.r.o.";
model.OriginSettings.ProjectDescription = "Training example";More datails can be found here.

// add material to the model
model.AddObject(material);Reference to the cross sections in open model is here.
Model has two types of cross sections: HE200B and HE240B. To create a single cross-section you need to know the material from previous section.
// only one material is in the model
MatSteel material = model.MatSteel.FirstOrDefault();
CrossSectionParameter css = new CrossSectionParameter();
css.Id = 1;
css.Name = "HE200B";
css.CrossSectionRotation = 0;
css.CrossSectionType = CrossSectionType.RolledI;
css.Parameters.Add(new ParameterString() { Name = "UniqueName", Value = "HE200B" });
css.Material = new ReferenceElement(material);
// add cross sections to the model
model.AddObject(css);Individual nodes are placed in the structure as follows:
Table of all nodes with given coordinates:
| Node | X | Y | Z |
|---|---|---|---|
| N1 | -2 | 3 | 0 |
| N2 | -2 | 3 | 3 |
| N3 | 2 | 3 | 0 |
| N4 | 2 | 3 | 3 |

Create 3D point and fill properties: id, name and coordinates.

model.AddObject(N1);
// create N2

model.AddObject(N2);
// and so on...Each instace of Member1D has one ore more instances Element1D.
1. The example of an instance of Member1D which has only one Element1D and it is connected as an ended member into a connection.
The code below describes how to create a member which has only one Element1D
Please notice, for better readability there are also helper functions like CreateLineSegment3D, CreateElement1D and CreateMember1D that you can find here.
// set the appropriate cross section
var css_he_200b = model.CrossSection.FirstOrDefault(item => item.Name == "HE200B");
// define the geometry of the member - the line segment connecting nodes N2 and N4
LineSegment3D segment = CreateLineSegment3D(model, "N2", "N4");
// create the polyline (polylines can consist of one ore more segments)
PolyLine3D polyline = new PolyLine3D();
polyline.Id = model.GetMaxId(polyline) + 1;
polyline.Segments.Add(new ReferenceElement(segment));
// add polylines and segments to the model
model.AddObject(polyline);
model.AddObject(segment);
// create one 1D element
Element1D element = CreateElement1D(model, css, segment);
model.AddObject(element);
// create one 1D member which has one element1D
Member1D member = CreateMember1D(model, 1, Member1DType.Beam, element);
model.Member1D.Add(member);
// create the instance of a ConnectedMember - it defines the geometrical bahaviour of our Member1D in a connection. It can be ended or continouous.
// Member1D can be part of more connections
ConnectedMember M1 = new ConnectedMember();
M1.Id = 1;
M1.MemberId = new ReferenceElement(member);
model.AddObject(M1);2. The example of an instance of Member1D which has two Element1Ds - it can be connected as an continuous member into a connection (by its middle node).
The code below describes the creation of second member - which connects 3 nodes the begin node (N1), the middle node (N2) and the end node (N7).
// set its cross sections
var css_he_240b = model.CrossSection.FirstOrDefault(item => item.Name == "HE240B");
// define geometry
// create line segment from N1 to N2
LineSegment3D segment1 = CreateLineSegment3D(model, "N1", "N2");
model.AddObject(segment1);
// create line segment from N2 to N7

model.AddObject(segment2);
// create the polyline
PolyLine3D polyline = new PolyLine3D();
polyline.Id = model.GetMaxId(polyline) + 1;

model.AddObject(element1);
Element1D element2 = CreateElement1D(model, css, segment2);
model.AddObject(element2);
// create 1D members
Member1D member = CreateMember1D(model, 2, Member1DType.Column, element1, element2);
model.Member1D.Add(member);
// create and return connected member
ConnectedMember M2 = new ConnectedMember();
M2.Id = id;
M2.MemberId = new ReferenceElement(member);
model.AddObject(M2);It its important to pay attantion to the correct setting of coordinate systems of members. It must correspond to coordinate systems which are used in your FEA model otherwise it can caused unbalanced internal forces in exported connections.
There are 3 options how to define the coordinate system for member 1d :
The coordinate system is a property of Segment3D
LineSegment3D segment3D = new LineSegment3D();

model.AddObject(CP1);Loading impuses for our connection are determined from results of FE analysis. IDEA OpenModel allowes to pass internal forces on members by OpenResuls class.
Results of internal forces which were generated by a FEA application can be optionally saved as in the format of OpenModelResult. It contains internal forces on the Member1Ds. The relationships between the IOM and the IOM Results are defined by ID of objects.
The file (.xmlR) with results can be found here. Format is as follows:

The package Idea StatiCa contains the assembly IdeaStatiCa.IOMToConnection.dll. It allows to generate an idea connection project from data passed in IOM format.
The example of creating IDEA Connection project from IOM locally - see project IOM.SteelFrameDesktop.csproj
The path to installation directory of Idea StatiCa must by set correcty set in the projectr setting.
IdeaInstallDir = IOM.SteelFrameDesktop.Properties.Settings.Default.IdeaInstallDir;
Console.WriteLine("IDEA StatiCa installation directory is '{0}'", IdeaInstallDir);it dynamically loads the assembly IdeaStatiCa.IOMToConnection.dll and all its references from this location. Methods should be invoked by reflection
// Initializtion
var initMethod = (obj).GetType().GetMethod("Init");
initMethod.Invoke(obj, null);
Console.WriteLine("Generating IDEA Connection project locally");
// Invoking method Import by reflection
var methodImport = (obj).GetType().GetMethod("Import");
object[] array = new object[3];
array[0] = example;
array[1] = result;
array[2] = fileConnFileNameFromLocal;
methodImport.Invoke(obj, array);You should modify your application's config file to avoid the conflict of the version of the assembly IdeaRS.OpenModel.dll which can be different in the nuget package and in your current installation of Idea StatiCa. See section assemblyBinding in the file :
