Find a variety of structural analysis models of process manufacturing plants to download, which you can use for training purposes or for your projects.
Structural Analysis Software for Process Manufacturing Plants
Structural FEM Analysis and Design
The structural analysis software RFEM 6 is the basis of a modular program family. The RFEM main program is used to define structures, materials, and loads for planar and spatial structural systems consisting of plates, walls, shells, and members. The program also allows you to create combined structures as well as model solid and contact elements.
Structural Frame & Truss Analysis Software
The structural frame analysis software RSTAB 9 has a similar range of functions as the FEA software RFEM. Due to the special attention to beam, frame, or truss structures, it is very easy to use and for many years, it has been the best choice for structural analysis and design of pure structural member models.
Wind Simulation and Wind Load Generation
The RWIND 2 stand-alone program is recommended for complex structures. This program simulates wind flows around any structures by means of a digital wind tunnel.
The generated wind loads acting on these objects can be imported to RFEM or RSTAB.
Add-ons and Add-on Modules for Industrial and Plant Engineering Design
For structural analysis and design in industrial and plant engineering, the add-ons and add-on modules of the Steel Structures industry are recommended.
Add-on Modules for Analysis of Pipelines
The add-on modules RF‑PIPING for RFEM 5 and RF‑PIPING Design for RFEM 5 are available for modeling and design of pipelines.
Interfaces for Data Exchange
The structural analysis software provided by Dlubal Software can be integrated seamlessly into the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process. The large number of interfaces ensures the data exchange of digital building models with RFEM or RSTAB.
The web service (programmable interface) can be used to read or write data from/to RFEM and RSTAB.
