Considering Member and Surface Eccentricities
In the case of a parallel offset of the structural plane of members and surfaces, or in the case of applying an axial offset to members, the function of eccentricities may be useful.

Material Model Orthotropic Masonry 2D
The material model Orthotropic Masonry 2D is an elastoplastic model that additionally allows softening of the material, which can be different in the local x- and y-direction of a surface. The material model is suitable for (unreinforced) masonry walls with in-plane loads.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How can I assign a common eccentricity to several different cross-sections at once?
- Why do I get low supporting moments for a single-span beam? There is an eccentricity assigned to the single-span beam.
- Why is it not possible to define eccentricity in the Z‑direction in my 2D model?
- How do you consider an offset of members at a particular connection point?
- When should the punching load be determined with the (un)smoothed distribution of the shear forces at the critical perimeter?
- I would like to perform the punching shear design on a column with connected downstand beams as a wall corner or Perform wall end. However, the module applies an internal column. Is it possible to adjust it?
- Is it possible to design bidirectional ribbed plates, unidirectional ribbed plates, or hollow core slabs in RFEM?
- Why are the values of a column base, head or center on the individual columns only displayed partially for the results from the calculation in RF‑CONCRETE Columns?
- Is it possible to set user-defined values when viewing solid stress results?
- How are the signs for the release results of a line release and line hinges interpreted?
