This example compares the effective lengths and critical load factor, which can be calculated in RFEM 6 using the Structure Stability add-on, with a manual calculation. The structural system is a rigid frame with two additional hinged columns. This column is loaded by vertical concentrated loads.
In this verification example, the capacity design values of shear forces on beams are calculated in accordance with EN 1998-1, 5.4.2.2 and 5.5.2.1 as well as the capacity design values of columns in flexure in accordance with 5.2.3.3(2). The system consists of a two span reinforced concrete beam with a span length of 5.50m. The beam is part of a frame system. The results obtained are compared with those in [1].
This verification example compares wind load calculations on a duopitch roof building using the ASCE 7-16 standard and using CFD simulation in RWIND Simulation. The building is defined according to the sketch and the inflow velocity profile taken from the ASCE 7-16 standard.
The verification example compares wind load calculation on a building with a duopitch roof using the standard EN 1991-1-4 and using CFD simulation in RWIND Simulation. The building is defined according to the sketch, and the inflow velocity profile is taken according to the standard EN 1991-1-4.
The verification example compares wind load calculation on a building with a flat roof using the standard EN 1991-1-4 and using CFD simulation in RWIND Simulation. The building is defined according to the sketch, and the inflow velocity profile is taken according to the standard EN 1991-1-4.
