The Stress-Strain Analysis add-on performs a general stress analysis by calculating the existing stresses and comparing them with the limit stresses. Strains for surfaces and solids can also be determined.
During the stress analysis, the maximum stresses of solids, surfaces, and line welds (RFEM only), as well as members are determined. The governing internal forces are also documented for each member and each surface. Furthermore, there is the option of an automatic section or thickness optimization including the update of the sections or surface thicknesses modified in RFEM/RSTAB.
This manual describes the Stress-Strain Analysis add-on for the programs RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9.
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 Construction Stages Analysis (CSA) add-on allows you to represent the construction process of the model in the RFEM 6 program. In this way, you can add, remove, or adjust structural objects to the individual construction phases. Furthermore, you can use the add-on can to determine the sequence of the load application and the way how the load cases are combined within the construction stages.
The Torsional Warping (7 DOF) add-on allows you to consider the cross-section warping as an additional degree of freedom for a global calculation of members in RFEM and RSTAB. 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 Torsional Warping (7 DOF) add-on for the programs RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9.
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.
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.
This manual describes the topics of the webinar "Modeling and Design of Solid Elements in RFEM 6".
In the webinar, a splice with bolts is modeled. It explains how you can define the contact between solids and perform a stress-strain analysis. Furthermore, the utilization of welds is also considered.
