Model
This one-story house, made of cross-laminated and glued laminated timber, will be awarded a prestigious certification for passive houses, a symbol of high quality standards in terms of energy efficiency and CO2 consumption.
Structure and Design
The house has an irregular floor plan and is based on a reinforced concrete floor slab. The wall and roof structures are made of cross-laminated timber. The roof structure is reinforced with class GL24h glulam beams to define a special inverted roof with sharp cantilevers standing out of the façade. In order to achieve high spans, the timber beams had to be reinforced with steel beams in some locations of the roof.
The RFEM finite element program was used to simulate the structural behavior of the entire system, including line hinges between the cross-laminated timber panels and the elastic foundation under the floor slab. The design according to the standard was performed with the add-on modules RF-LAMINATE and RF-CONCRETE Surfaces in order to optimize the thicknesses.
It was necessary to create a local model to evaluate the connection between the steel and timber beams on the cantilevers and to analyze the resistance of the fasteners (pulling out) under specific situations, such as wind pressure and suction.

Parameterization of Rolled Cross-Sections
Rolled sections, the most common cross‑section type in RFEM and RSTAB, can also have user‑defined parameters.
Material Model Orthotropic Masonry 2D
The material model Orthotropic Masonry 2D is an elastoplastic model that additionally allows softening of the material, which can be different in the local x- and y-direction of a surface. The material model is suitable for (unreinforced) masonry walls with in-plane loads.
- In RF‑CONCRETE Surfaces, I obtain a high amount of reinforcement in relation to a lever arm that is almost zero. How is such a small lever arm of internal forces created?
- How can I display membrane stresses in the results of RF‑STEEL Surfaces?
- How does the "Orthotropic Plastic" material model work in RFEM?
- What is the meaning of the superposition according to the CQC rule in a dynamic analysis??
- How is the automatic creation of c/t-parts carried out?
- When converting from the manual definition of reinforcement areas to the automatic arrangement of reinforcement according to Window 1.4, the result of the deformation calculation differs, although the basic reinforcement has not been modified. What is the reason for this change?
- I design a set of members by using the equivalent member method in RF‑/STEEL EC3, but the calculation fails. The system is unstable, delivering the message "Non-designable - ER055) Zero value of the critical moment on the segment."What could be the reason?
- Does the program check the lap length of the vertical stirrups of a block foundation with smooth bucket sides?
- Why do I get a discontinuous area in the distribution of internal forces? In the area of the supported line, the shear force VEd shows a jump, which does not seems to be plausible.
- Is there a possibility in RFEM to define a global polar grid whose origin lies, for example, in the global zero point and which applies to several surfaces?
