The following overview shows the RFEM user interface. The locations in the Navigator that have extended input options when the “Time dependent analysis (TDA)” add-on is activated are marked.
Basic Objects ➀
In the “Basic Objects” category, specific properties are added to the materials. For suitable materials (currently only concrete), an additional tab is available where you can define the time-dependent parameter of the material.
Load Cases and Combinations ➁
In the “Load Cases and Combinations” category, you can select the “Static Analysis | Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA)” type for load cases and load combinations. For this, you can specify the duration of the loading.
The advanced input options for materials and load cases are described in the Chapter Input.
