The Masonry Design add-on activates special material models that have been developed for calculating masonry structures. This allows you to consider the masonry material in an FEM analysis.
In the calculation, internal forces and deformations are determined on the basis of stress-strain lines derived from the standardization. This means that the design is based on the standard.
This manual describes the Masonry Design add-on for the RFEM 6 program.
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.
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 topics of the webinar "Masonry Design of Using Finite Element Method in RFEM 6".
This webinar shows you how to model masonry structures in RFEM 6 and how to calculate them using the nonlinear orthotropic material model.
