The individually defined printout reports in an RFEM or RSTAB model can be displayed in different ways. In addition to the usual types of output via a printer, there is also an export to the VCmaster program in a PDF format and in a CSV format.
This program supports the digital creation of structural calculations and structural engineering reports in the overall context. The VCt2W interface integrated in VCmaster ensures data transfer from all programs for bundling in one document.
KB 000811 | Interface with VCmaster
The direct interface with Revit allows you to update the Revit model according to the changes you have made in RFEM or RSTAB. Depending on the modification, the Revit objects may have to be regenerated (deleting the object and subsequent regeneration). The regeneration is performed on the basis of the RFEM/RSTAB model.
If you want to avoid this regeneration, activate the check box 'Update only materials, thicknesses, and sections'. In this case, only the properties of the objects will be adjusted. Changes different from those in material, surface thickness, and section are, however, not considered in this case.
When exchanging data with Advance Steel using *.smlx files, the interface is detected automatically. This means that *.smlx files can be created even if no version of Advance Steel is installed.
In RFEM and RSTAB, you can visualize the flow field quantities of pressure, velocity, turbulence kinetic energy, and turbulence dissipation rate for the wind simulation.
The clipping planes are aligned with the respective wind direction.
In the ultimate configuration of the steel joint design, you have the option to modify the limit plastic strain for welds.
