$aa = icon;
echo StaticClass::chat{$aa}; // not working

You missed the constant . The syntax is

constant ( string $name )

It should be

constant('StaticClass::chat'. $aa)

Use function constant() (as in http://www.php.net/constant) i.e : 

constant('StaticClass::chat'. $aa)

constant("StaticClass::chat$aa")

http://php.net/constant

And constants aren't "called", they're "accessed" if anything.
