A member is the simplest structural element in a structure. It is defined by an initial and end node.

By assigning a cross-section and the related material, the member gets a stiffness. Members are always connected by the nodes only.

Members do not have any lateral expansion. Thus, they are an idealization of real structural components.

Parameterization of Rolled Cross-Sections

Rolled sections, the most common cross‑section type in RFEM and RSTAB, can also have user‑defined parameters.

Design of Concrete Columns Subjected to Axial Compression with RF-CONCRETE Columns

This article compares the design with the one in the following article: Design of Concrete Columns Subjected to Axial Compression with RF-CONCRETE Members. It is therefore about taking exactly the same theoretical application carried out in RF-CONCRETE Members and reproducing it in RF-CONCRETE Columns. Thus, the objective is to compare the different input parameters and the results obtained by the two add-on modules for the design of column-like concrete members.

Design of Concrete Columns Subjected to Axial Compression with RF-CONCRETE Members

This article deals with rectilinear elements whose cross-section is subjected to axial compressive force. The purpose of this article is to show how quite a lot of parameters defined in the Eurocodes for concrete column calculation are considered in the RFEM structural analysis software.

Timber Beam-Column Design per NDS 2018 Using RF-/TIMBER AWC Module

In this article, the adequacy of a 2x4 dimension lumber subject to combined bi-axial bending and axial compression is verified using RF-/TIMBER AWC add-on module. The beam-column properties and loading are based on example E1.8 of AWC Structural Wood Design Examples 2015/2018.

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.

Effective Cross-Section of a Cold-Formed Z-Section in SHAPE-THIN 9

SHAPE-THIN | Cold-Formed Sections

SHAPE-THIN determines the effective cross-sections according to EN 1993-1-3 and EN 1993-1-5 for cold-formed sections. You can optionally check the geometric conditions for the applicability of the standard specified in EN 1993‑1‑3, Section 5.2.

The effects of local plate buckling are considered according to the method of reduced widths and the possible buckling of stiffeners (instability) is considered for stiffened sections according to EN 1993-1-3, Section 5.5.

As an option, you can perform an iterative calculation to optimize the effective cross-section.

You can display the effective cross-sections graphically.

Read more about designing cold-formed sections with SHAPE-THIN and RF-/STEEL Cold-Formed Sections in this technical article: Design of a Thin-Walled, Cold-Formed C-Section According to EN 1993-1-3.
