RF-COM 4.xx

Programmable COM Interface for RFEM 

RF-COM is a programmable interface based on COM technology. Using this interface, you can customize RFEM to suit your individual needs and program input macros or post-run routines. You can also create new positions in RFEM and save specific data there. The same holds for load cases, load groups and combinations.
RF-COM contains an object library for common programming languages, such as Visual Basic, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), Visual C++ (or .NET). This object library includes objects and methods that allow access to RFEM data.
However, you can not use RF-COM without an editor, compiler and basic programming knowledge. You can easily integrate the supplied object library to the editor. For example, if you have Microsoft Excel, you do not need more, because the VBA editor is included in this software. To run the RF-COM interface, valid licences for RF-COM and RFEM are required.

Possible RF-COM Applications

  • Structure generator for typical geometry with loads and load combinations, for example welded steel connections, reoccurring concrete slabs with openings (prefabricated elements), silos, steel beams with loads or column footings.
  • Importing and exporting data from spreadsheet programs such as MS Excel and Access.
  • Connection to various COM-compatible programs, for example CAD systems.
  • Customized pre- and postprocessing modules.
  • Processing and output of data in customer-specific formats.
 

Operational Range of RF-COM

  • Reading/writing structural data, load cases, load combinations, supercombinations and result data.
  • External control of the calculation.
  • Possibility to open existing positions, to create new positions or to edit them.
  • Access to all results such as deformations, internal forces and support reactions.
  • Ability to intercept possible errors using error messages.
