Question
How can I export the reinforcement results from RF‑CONCRETE Surfaces to Excel?Answer
In this case, you should pay attention to the following steps:
- In Window 2.3 "Required Reinforcement by Point," select the "In Grid Points" option, see Image 01.

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.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How can I view the depth of the concrete compression zone in RF‑/CONCRETE?
-
If I do not specify any basic reinforcement in RF‑CONCRETE Surfaces, I obtain the value X as an additionally required reinforcement. If I enter this value X as the provided basic reinforcement, I correctly do not get any additional required reinforcement.
However, if I enter a lower value than the determined required total reinforcement as the basic reinforcement, the additionally required reinforcement is increased in such a way that the originally required reinforcement content is exceeded. Why? - Why do I get such a small amount of reinforcement for the upstand beam? The amount of reinforcement for the downstand beams is significantly larger.
- How can I export the reinforcement results from RF‑CONCRETE Surfaces to Excel?
- When displaying my reinforcement, I use the "Values on Surfaces" option in the Results navigator. Is it possible to display additional information for the values?
- How can I change the colors of the graphical display of a reinforcement?
- Is it possible in RF‑CONCRETE Surfaces to model a prefabricated slab or an element slab with different reinforcement layouts, for example, a reinforcement layer in a precast element and another reinforcement layer in the cast-in-place concrete extension?
- After entering the support widths in the RF-CONCRETE Members add-on module and starting the calculation, the following error message appears: "Support width too large!". What can I do?
- Is it possible to output the modulus of elasticity from element State II (calculation with RF-CONCRETE Deflect) element by element?
- I designed a wall with RF-CONCRETE Surfaces. On the outside and inside, the program shows me the same reinforcement amount [cm²/m]. Do I have to insert A s,top + A s,bottom by now? Or only one value (top or bottom)?
