Joint design resistance calculation

What the script does

calc-design-resistance-1.py opens the sample project ../projects/beam-to-cont-column.ideaCon, runs the joint design resistance CBFEM analysis on its first connection, and prints the key result values.

Steps performed (real method names from the script):

1. Attach to a running Connection API service via ConnectionApiServiceAttacher("http://localhost:5000").create_api_client().
2. api_client.project.open_project_from_filepath(project_file_path) — open the .ideaCon project.
3. api_client.project.get_project_data(...) and api_client.connection.get_connections(...) — print project data and pick the first connection.
4. Build a ConCalculationParameter with analysis_type = "total_Design" for that connection.
5. api_client.calculation.get_raw_json_results(...) — run the analysis and get the raw JSON results.
6. Parse the totalCapacity section of the results and print appliedLoadPercentage, maxPlateEps, and maxWeldEps.

How to run

1. Install the client package (the package version must match your installed IDEA StatiCa version):

   pip install ideastatica-connection-api
   

2. Start the Connection API service from your IDEA StatiCa installation folder (adjust to your installed version):

   "C:\Program Files\IDEA StatiCa\StatiCa 26.0\IdeaStatiCa.ConnectionRestApi.exe"
   

   The service listens on port 5000 by default, which is the baseUrl the script expects. Alternatively, start the service from Python with ConnectionApiServiceRunner (see the calculate_project_using_runner example).

3. Run the script from this folder (it locates the sample project via the relative path ../projects):

   python calc-design-resistance-1.py
