In RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9, load and result combinations are automatically created according to the Canadian standards CAN/CSA, NBCC, or CSA O86.
2
Design of Reinforced Concrete Members and Surfaces According to CSA A23.3-14
For reinforced concrete design in RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9, the Canadian standard CSA A23.3 is available.
3
Steel Design According to CSA S16
The Steel Design add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9 performs the ultimate limit state and the serviceability limit state design of members according to the Canadian standard CSA S16.
4
Timber Design According to CSA O86
The Timber Design add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9 performs all typical ultimate limit state, stability, serviceability limit state, and fire resistance design checks of timber members according to the Canadian standard CSA O86.
5
Seismic Analysis Design According to NBC 2015
The Modal Analysis add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9 allows you to determine natural frequencies and mode shapes.
In the Response Spectrum Analysis add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9, the seismic analysis is performed using the multi-modal response spectrum analysis. Among other standards, the Canadian standard NBC 2015 is implemented.
6
Design of Laminate Surfaces According to CSA O86
The RF-LAMINATE add-on module performs deflection and stress analysis of sandwich and laminate surfaces (for example, CLT, GFRP) according to the standard CSA O86.

Features of the Modal Analysis Add-on for RFEM 6
The dynamic analysis in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 is divided into several add-ons. This article will show you some of the main features of the Modal Analysis Add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9.
-
How do I set a release for warping?
- I am currently working abroad and sometimes I have to login to the program using mobile data, which costs a lot. What is the data consumption of the RFEM operation?
- How can I import printout report templates from other computers?
- Is there an easy way to generate a tangent to a circle in RFEM 6?
- How can I define a warping spring or a warping restraint?
-
At which point on a cross-section are the supports and loads assumed for the calculation with warping torsion?
- I would like to create a rotationally symmetric surface in RFEM 6. However, the rotated surface is not created. Why?

RFEM 6
Main Program
RFEM 6 structural analysis software is the basis of a modular software system. The main RFEM 6 program is used to define structures, materials, and loads of planar and spatial structural systems consisting of plates, walls, shells, and members. The program also allows you to create combined structures as well as to model solid and contact elements.

Main Program
The RSTAB 9 structural frame analysis and design program contains a similar range of functions as the FEA RFEM software, paying special attention to frameworks. It is, therefore, very easy to use and has for many years been the best choice for structural analysis of beam structures consisting of steel, concrete, timber, aluminum, and other materials.

Dynamic Analysis
In the Response Spectrum Analysis add-on, seismic analysis is performed using multi-modal response spectrum analysis. The spectra required for this can be created in compliance with the standards or can be user-defined. The equivalent static forces are generated from this. The add-on includes an extensive library of accelerograms from seismic zones. These can be used to generate response spectra.
