Steel Joist Institute Virtual Joists
The Steel Joist Institute (SJI) previously developed Virtual Joist tables to estimate the section properties for Open Web Steel Joists. These Virtual Joist sections are characterized as equivalent wide-flange beams which closely approximate the joist chord area, effective moment of inertia, and weight.

Line Releases in RFEM 6
Line releases are special objects in RFEM 6 that allow structural decoupling of objects connected to a line. They are mostly used to decouple two surfaces that are not rigidly connected or transferring only compressive forces at the common boundary line.

Product Features in RFEM 6

|
Intersection of Curved Surfaces and Solids
|
|
Intersection of Curved Surfaces and Solids
Curved elements are available only in RFEM. It's possible to intersect curved surfaces and solids. When doing this, the program generates surfaces with the "Trimmed" surface type. With this technology, you can create very complex geometries, such as pipe intersections or curved openings, with a single click.

Design of Surface Reinforcement
You have the option to automatically design the existing surface reinforcement to cover the required reinforcement. You can also select whether to automatically define the reinforcement diameter or the member spacing.

Multiple Editing of Member Reinforcement
Utilize this time-saving step! This feature allows you to define or edit the member reinforcement for several members or member sets at the same time.

Freely Adjustable Wind Permeability for Surfaces
Use RWIND 2 Pro to easily apply a permeability to a surface. All you need is the definition of the Darcy coefficient D, the inertial coefficient I, and the length of the porous medium in the direction of flow L, to define a pressure boundary condition between the front and back of a porous zone. Due to this setting, you obtain the flow through this zone with a two-part result display on both sides of the zone area.
