Model Parameters

In the Model Parameters tab, you can define the geographical position of the structural object and enter information about the construction project.

Dialog Box "New Model – Base Data", Tab "Model Parameters"

Location

You can enter the location information directly in the text boxes. However, we recommend using the graphical selection in the Geo-Zone Tool, which you can access by clicking the button available in the text box (see the image above), or the button below the table.

Defining Location on Map

Enter the "Location" of the object. You can also define the location by clicking the map. The address, including geographic data, will be imported automatically. Once you click OK to apply the location, RFEM retrieves the load zone data.

The geographic location of the model is also documented in the printout report.

Model Parameters

In this section, you can enter information about the construction object that describes the project and model in more detail. The "Model ID" as well as the "Project ID" are displayed as well. These GUIDs ensure the identification of the model when exchanging data, for example with RWIND or Revit®.

Model parameters, such as "Client" and "Project name", appear in the cover sheet of the printout report.
