In RFEM 5 and RSTAB 8, you can check the deformations in the shear center by using the RF‑/FE‑LTB add-on module (see Image 02). The deformations that additionally result from the displacements or rotations can only be checked with a surface model in RFEM 5.
Deformations of Craneway
I am trying to manually check the deformations from the CRANEWAY add-on module. However, I obtain large deviations. How to explain the differences?

Shear walls and deep beams of a building model are available as independent objects in the design add-ons. This allows for faster filtering of the objects in results, as well as better documentation in the printout report.
The building story generator in the Building Model add-on allows you to automatically create building stories, depending on the topology of the model.
In the Concrete Design provides an option to perform seismic design according to AISC 341-16 for steel members.
Five SFRS types (Seismic Force-Resisting Systems) are available for this.
The combination wizard provides you with the option to consider more than one initial state. RFEM and RSTAB allow you to specify different initial states (prestress, form-finding, strain, and so on) for the target combinations in the combinatorics.
You can thus, for example, generate load states on the basis of a form-finding analysis with varying imperfections.
