Graphic for Steel Design

The evaluation and documentation of the design results is mainly done graphically. In the work window, you have the same selection options and possibilities for #/en/downloads-and-information/documents/online-manuals/rfem-6/002205 result evaluation as for the structural analysis. For example, you can use visibilities for members and result sections for surfaces.

Navigator – Results

The Navigator – Results is adapted to the design add-on for displaying the different result types on the model. The steel checks are managed under the Steel Design result type in the Navigator list.

In the Design Situations category, you can specify whether the maximum results from all design situations (the “envelope”) or the maximum values of specific design situations should be displayed.

In the Design Checks category, you can select the result type for members or surfaces. Multiple selections are possible; the selected results are then displayed simultaneously on the model (see the image Displaying Multiple Result Types).

The Additional Member Results category allows for the display of mode shapes on the model. In the Values on Surfaces category, you can define the result values for display on the surfaces (see the chapter Result Values on Surfaces of the RFEM manual).

In the lower section of the navigator, you will find additional settings. Here, you can show or hide the result values or result sections. The Members category provides important control options for displaying the result diagrams and the values shown (see also the images in the chapter Design Checks).

Control Panel

The control panel is also tailored to the results of steel design. There, you can adjust the colors of the result diagrams. This may be necessary if you display several result types.

With user-defined color scales, you can also define value ranges for the graphical results.

In the control panel, you can also scale the resultFactorsTab factors of the result diagrams or specify certain 6/001106#resultsOnObjectsFilterTab objects for the display of results.
