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 Steel Design add-on allows you to design steel members 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 Steel Design add-on for the RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 programs.
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 concrete design was performed in the second part. Finally, the third part deals with the design of the steel members according to EN 1993‑1‑1 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. After performing the concrete design in the second part, the third part now deals with the design of steel members. AISC 360-16 is used as a standard.
For some structures, the long-term effects, such as creep, shrinkage, and aging, can influence the distribution of internal forces. This time-dependent material behavior can be determined using the Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA) add-on, which is available in the RFEM 6 program.
The influence of the time-dependent material behavior is currently only taken into account for member elements, and creep effects for the material concrete.
This manual describes the topics of the webinar "Steel Structure Analysis in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9". First, it shows how to model a truss bridge. Using this example, it describes how to apply loads and load combinations, and then a stability analysis as well as design according to Eurocode 3 using the Steel Design add-on is carried out.
In the manual for the Steel Design add-on, you can find detailed explanations of all the add-on options.
The manual describes all steps in RSTAB 9. However, all explanations also apply to RFEM 6.
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.
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 carried out. Then the concrete and steel designs were performed out in the following parts. This part now guides you through the dynamic analysis of the model according to EN 1998-1 with the CEN settings.
