AISI Cold‑Formed Steel Design Using Custom Section in RFEM 6
Custom sections are often required in cold-formed steel design. In RFEM 6, the custom section can be created using one of the “Thin-Walled” sections available in the library. For other sections that do not meet any of the 14 available cold-formed shapes, the sections can be created and imported from the standalone program, RSECTION.

Automatic Design Process of Provided Surface Reinforcement
When designing a reinforced concrete wall or slab acc. to the ACI 318 or CSA A23.3, the amount of reinforcement necessary may not be known. New in the Concrete Design Add-on, the automatic surface reinforcement design process determines a surface reinforcement that covers the required amount of reinforcement.

Building Collapse Simulation under Dynamic Loading
The events of recent years remind us of the importance of earthquake engineering in seismic regions. For you as an engineer, the design of structures in earthquake prone areas is a constant trade-off between economic efficiency – the financial possibilities – and structural safety. If a collapse is inevitable, engineers must estimate how it will affect the structure. This article aims to provide you with an option on how to perform this estimation.
