- Full integration in RFEM/RSTAB with import of relevant internal forces
- Design checks for the elastic-elastic and elastic-plastic methods
- Graphical selection of members and sets of members for design
- Analysis for several load and design cases
- Design based on the buckling field parameters integrated in the cross-section library for the cross-section parts supported on one and both sides
- Optional determination of shear stresses according to comment on El. (745)
- Possibility to consider the weld thickness in the design of welded cross-sections, which has the effect of a shortening of the cross-section part width
- Cross-section optimization with the option to export modified cross-sections

The three types of moment frames (Ordinary, Intermediate, Special) are available in the Steel Design add-on of RFEM 6. The seismic design result according to AISC 341-22 is categorized into two sections: member requirements and connection requirements.
The Steel Design add-on in RFEM 6 now offers the ability to perform seismic design according to AISC 341-16 and AISC 341-22. Five types of seismic force-resisting systems (SFRS) are currently available.

Moment frame design according to AISC 341-16 is now possible in the Steel Design add-on of RFEM 6. The seismic design result is categorized into two sections: member requirements and connection requirements. This article covers the required strength of the connection. An example comparison of the results between RFEM and the AISC Seismic Design Manual [2] is presented.

In the ultimate configuration of the steel joint design, you have the option to modify the limit plastic strain for welds.
The "Base Plate" component allows you to design base plate connections with cast-in anchors. In this case, plates, welds, anchorages, and steel-concrete interaction are analyzed.
In the "Edit Section" dialog box, you can display the buckling shapes of the Finite Strip Method (FSM) as a 3D graphic.
