Overview

Dlubal software and its modular structure

Dlubal software is based on a modular system. There are two main program families: RSTAB and RFEM. Each family is made up of the main program and its add-on modules. These modules are either integrated in the main program or, in a few cases, run as standalone programs. Integrated modules, however, only run with the corresponding main program.

RX-TIMBER represents a specific group of standalone Dlubal programs. Take advantage of the TIMBER package to design any timber-specific structure.
