In addition to determining loads, some particularities concerning the load combinatorics in timber design have to be considered. Contrary to steel structures, where the largest loading results from all unfavorable actions, in timber construction, the strength values depend on the load duration and timber humidity. Special characteristics have to be considered as well for the serviceability limit state design. The following article discusses the effects on the design of wooden elements and how this is possible with RSTAB and RFEM.
In this article, you will learn how to model and design cable structures in RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9.
This article describes and explains the influence of bending stiffness of cables on their internal forces. Furthermore, the text provides information on how this influence can be reduced.
The ASCE 7-22 Standard [1], Sect. 12.9.1.6 specifies when P-delta effects should be considered when running a modal response spectrum analysis for seismic design. In the NBC 2020 [2], Sent. 4.1.8.3.8.c gives only a short requirement that sway effects due to the interaction of gravity loads with the deformed structure should be considered. Therefore, there may be situations where second-order effects, also known as P-delta, must be considered when carrying out a seismic analysis.
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.
Using the "Base Plate" component, you can design base plate connections with cast-in anchors. In addition to plates and welds, the design analyzes the anchorage and the steel-concrete interaction.
In RFEM, you can generate surfaces from members with the library cross-sections as well as from the members with the RSECTION cross-section.
How can I consider loads from the self-weight as "favorable" and "unfavorable" for the combinations?
For a specific combination expression, I would like to consider a load case with a combination coefficient that deviates from the standard. How can I proceed?
Where can I define the reference height for the reduction factors of a snow load according to SIA 260?
Is it possible to use the general method according to EN 1993‑1‑1, 6.3.4 to design structural components with an asymmetric cross-section in the Steel Design add-on for RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9?
Why does the integration/support of my building in the ground below the ground level not work?
