Design Properties of Surfaces

This chapter describes the design properties of the surfaces subjected to the design. These properties, such as the type and arrangement of the surface reinforcement, have a significant influence on the design checks. Some design properties are to be assigned as Types for Concrete Design or as the Concrete Design parameters, which are explained in the respective chapters.

In the subchapters, the tabs of the "Edit Surface" dialog box are described in detail. To activate these tabs, select the Design Properties check box in the "Main" tab.

Info

Design properties cannot be assigned to surface sets. This design option is still in preparation.

Tip

The technical article Design of Ribs, Folded Plate Structures, and Surfaces Using Result Members in RFEM 6 describes the alternative design of surfaces as member elements.
