FAQ 005181 | Can I export a response spectrum from RFEM 6 and use it in RFEM 5, for example?

Question:
Can I export a response spectrum from RFEM 6 and use it in RFEM 5, for example?

Answer:
Yes, you can also export the response spectra from RFEM 6 and import them into RFEM 5 as a user-defined response spectrum. Please note that export and import via Excel may also have different columns/descriptions due to different versions.

Export your data in RFEM 6 to Excel.

If you want to import this table directly, you will get an error message. RFEM 5 expects a different worksheet description and two columns only.

As soon as you adjust the name in Excel and delete the column with the frequency results, you will be able to edit the response spectrum in RFEM 5.
