The model presents a two-story steel structure in which the serviceability with regard to horizontal nodal displacements is analyzed using the RF-/LIMITS add-on module. The structural system compares the results with the specified limit values, thus demonstrating the structural approach for controlling lateral displacements. The linked image illustrates the structure and highlights the relevant node areas that are important for the deformation analysis. Furthermore, the model highlights the practical use of limit value analyses in modern structural concepts.
