Description
Question: Is it possible to transfer properties, such as the cross-section, or the surface thickness as well as the material of a surface, of an existing element to a new element?
Answer: When creating a new element (a member, a surface, a solid), there is a corresponding function at the bottom of the dialog box that allows you to import the properties of another element (see Image 01).
After activating the function, click the element from which you want to transfer the properties. In addition to the geometry and the material, other settings, such as eccentricities or stiffness modifications, will be transferred as well.

Concrete Design | Reinforced Concrete Design with Net Concrete Area
During the cross-section design, you can control whether the concrete surface is applied behind the reinforcing bars or is subtracted from the concrete cross-section. The design of the net concrete cross-section is mainly used for highly reinforced cross-sections.- When trying to perform a calculation, I get the message "The path to RWIND Simulation working directory cannot contain any non-ASCII characters." What can I do?

The limit stress is activated, but my stress ratio is “non-designable” in the Stress-Strain Analysis add-on. What could be the reason?
- In RFEM 6, is it possible to display a graphic with the distribution of the required reinforcement in the DIN A0 format?
- How do I define a member as a cantilever and not as supported at both ends for serviceability or deflection design?
- Where can I find the graphical results of punching shear in the concrete design? Especially the distribution of shear forces at the critical perimeter or the punching loads.

Is it possible to display the reinforcement description in RFEM 6?
- I would like to export nodal support forces of several load cases, load combinations and result combinations into an Excel spreadsheet in RFEM 6. How should I proceed?
- Where can find the option to hide the defined types (for example, design supports or effective lengths)?
- How do I create a user-defined Design Situation with my own chosen load combinations?
- Can I define a different bar size in the RFEM 6 Concrete Design add-on other than the default bar sizes available in the drop-down?
