As an industry leader, Lida Group leverages cutting-edge engineering practices to design efficient and resilient steel structures.

Computational Design Tools

Specialized modeling software simulates load distributions and structural behaviors under realistic scenarios, enhancing sizing accuracy versus hand calculations.

Progressive Collapse Prevention

Key members and frame intersections are overdesigned to re-distribute stresses from potential local damage and maintain integrity – ensuring safe evacuation in extreme events.

High-Fidelity Analysis

Finite element analysis precisely replicates complex connections, revealing peak stresses for optimization. Non-linear dynamic analysis proves resilience to seismicity.

Structural Optimization

Iterative redesign reduces materials through topology optimization while satisfying all code criteria. Savings offset increased engineering hours.

Modular Standardization

Repeating bays and connections improve constructability across projects varying in spans or geometries versus custom designs, lowering costs.

Next-Level connections

Proprietary bolted or welded splices maximize strength transfer between members through full plastic development per connection type.

Building Envelope Engineering

Coordination between structure, panels and sealants mitigates air/water ingress risks through all loading scenarios like internal pressures.

Longitudinal Loadpaths

Continuous loadpaths route forces to foundations to bypass localized damage with minimal redundancy. Structures Self-remediate incidents.

Fire Engineering

Compartmentalized designs utilizerated encapsulations while
strategic openings and sprinklers safeguard personneland property.

Rigorous Testing validates innovations through full-scale prototypes subjected to millions of load-cycles and catastrophic failure scenarios. The result – optimally efficient, resilient and code-compliant designs.

With a reputation built on continuous advancement, Lida structures withstand stresses far exceeding minimum standards to serve communities for generations.
