Results Evaluation and Printout Report in RFEM 5

The result tables show available positive and negative internal forces highlighted by colors. Furthermore, the relation to extreme values is indicated. Result tables of the design modules use color scales to represent respective design ratios. In this way, you can quickly find out the design locations that are decisive.

The result diagrams of members, surfaces and supports can be configured freely: You can define smooth ranges with average values or, if necessary, display and hide the distribution of results. This option helps you to evaluate results specifically. All diagrams can be integrated in the printout report.

Results on the rendered model are represented by a number of colors so that deformations such as the rotation of a member can be detected easily. Colors and the range of values can be freely defined in the control panel. Computer animation of deformations, surface stresses as well as internal forces can be set and saved as a video file.

The first result table is represented by a summarized overview making up the balance for the equilibrium of forces in the structural system and the maximum deformations. In addition, RFEM shows you information concerning the calculation process. All result tables can be filtered by specific criteria such as extreme values or design locations.

Model, loading and results can be printed in series. RFEM creates several graphics viewed from different directions to be specified. For example, it is possible to print all internal forces in the isometric view by a single mouse-click.

The output of results in the printout report can be set for various languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Polish, Dutch, Portuguese and Russian. You can create further languages yourself. Additional texts can be imported as RTF files. Even the paging can be configured, for example when you want to use prefixes. Finally, it is possible to export the report as a RTF or PDF file.

The extent of the printout report can be adjusted individually by means of selection criteria. You can create print templates based on already existing printouts and reuse them globally for all design projects. For graphical print presentations it is possible to integrate title boxes.
