In this tutorial, we would like to inform you about the essential features of the RFEM program. The first part shows how to create the structural objects and loads, combine the loads, perform a structural analysis, check the results, and prepare the data for printing. Eurocodes with the CEN settings are used as standards.

In this tutorial, we would like to inform you about the essential features of the RFEM program. The first part shows how to create the structural objects and loads, combine the loads, perform a structural analysis, check the results, and prepare the data for printing. The US codes are used as standards.

The Concrete Design add-on allows you to design reinforced concrete members and surfaces according to various design standards. It is possible to perform the ultimate limit state and serviceability limit state design checks. The input and result evaluation are completely integrated in the user interface of the structural FEA software RFEM and the frame & truss analysis software RSTAB.

This manual describes the Concrete Design add-on for RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9. In RSTAB, you can only design members and member sets, not surfaces.

In this tutorial, we would like to inform you about the essential features of the RFEM program. In the first part, a model was defined and a structural analysis was carried out. The second part deals with the concrete design of the slabs, walls, beams, and the column according to EN 1992‑1‑1 with the CEN settings.

In this tutorial, we would like to inform you about the essential features of the RFEM program. In the first part, a model was defined and a structural analysis was carried out. Now, the second part deals with the concrete design of slabs, walls, beams, and the column. ACI 318-19 is used as a standard.

The Timber Design add-on allows you to design timber members and surfaces according to various design standards. Cross-section resistance checks, stability analyses, and serviceability limit state design checks can also be performed. The input and result evaluation are completely integrated in the user interface of the structural FEA software RFEM and the frame & truss analysis software RSTAB.

This manual describes the Timber Design add-on for the RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 programs.

The Aluminum Design add-on allows you to design aluminum members according to various design standards. It is possible to perform cross-section resistance checks, stability analyses, and serviceability limit state design checks. The input and result evaluation are completely integrated in the user interface of the structural FEA software RFEM and the frame & truss analysis software RSTAB.

This manual describes the Aluminum Design add-on for the RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 programs.

For some structures, long-term effects such as creep, shrinkage, and aging can influence the distribution of internal forces. This time-dependent material behavior can be analyzed with the Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA) add-on, which is available in the RFEM 6 program.

The influence of the time-dependent material behavior can be analyzed for both members and surfaces. Creep effects are only taken into account for the material concrete.

The Building Model add-on allows you to define and manipulate a building by means of stories. The stories can be adjusted in many ways. Information about the stories and also the entire model (a center of gravity) is displayed in tables and graphics.

This manual describes the Building Model add-on for the RFEM 6 program.

The Geotechnical Analysis add-on allows for a finite element analysis of soil solids with the suitable material laws in RFEM 6. By integrating Geotechnical Analysis into the FEA software, the soil-structure interaction can be represented computationally completely in the overall model.

With the Geotechnical Analysis, it is possible to determine the stresses and deformations of a soil solid. The input and result evaluation are integrated in the user interface of the RFEM 6 program.

This manual describes the Geotechnical Analysis add-on for the RFEM 6 program.

The Multilayer Surfaces add-on allows you to define the layer structure of any material model. Another possible thickness type is the beam panel as a composite of members and surfaces. In the case of orthotropic materials, the individual layers can be rotated by an angle β, and thus it is possible to consider different stiffnesses by direction. The Multilayer Surfaces add-on is completely integrated in the user interface of the FEA program RFEM.

This manual describes the Multilayer Surfaces add-on for the RFEM 6 program.

This manual describes the topics of the webinar Modeling and Design of Timber Structures in RFEM 6.

First, it shows how to model a hip rafter in RFEM 6 and how to apply loads, as well as how to perform timber design according to Eurocode 5. The creation of a printout report and the use of parameters and user-defined scripts are then discussed.

In the manual for the Timber Design add-on, you can find detailed explanations of all the add-on options.

This manual describes the topics of the webinar "Modeling and Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9".

Using an example of a building ceiling, we explain how to perform reinforced concrete design according to Eurocode 2. Furthermore, the result documentation in the printout report is explained.

In the manual for the Concrete Design add-on, you can find detailed explanations of all the add-on options.

This manual describes the topics of the webinar "Stability and Warping Torsion Analyses in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9".

In the webinar, a stability analysis of a staircase tower is carried out. It explains when and why a warping torsion analysis with 7 degrees of freedom is necessary. Furthermore, special attention is given to how you can create and combine local imperfections in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9.

In the manual, all steps are carried out in RFEM 6, but the same also applies to RSTAB 9.
