Garage Pétry à ROOST
Customer Project
In Roost, Luxembourg, a new building complex is being built that relates to cars. Up to six car dealerships, a parking area, and a paint shop will be built on the site. The construction project was divided into two planning phases. The first phase includes three multi-story car dealerships. They have the same supporting structure.

Dimensions of the car dealership
Model
Schatz Engineering, a customer of Dlubal Software, was responsible for the structural and design engineering of the building complex. RSTAB was used for structural design, and Tekla Structures for the design engineering.
Structure
The three structurally identical car dealerships have the external dimensions (L x W x H) of about 121 ft x 92 ft x 43 ft.
The supporting structure consists of precast columns with molded foundations. Precast concrete supports are placed on column corbels. The walls were designed as concrete hollow walls. The floors and ceilings are made of precast concrete slabs. The roof structure and the facade substructure were designed as a steel structure.
BIM Planning with RSTAB and Tekla Structures
The project planning was carried out in Tekla Structures. The Tekla model was transferred to RSTAB using the direct interface. After performing the structural analysis, beam dimensions were updated in the Tekla model.
Tekla Structures was also used to create formwork and reinforcement drawings for the precast concrete elements, garage design, schemes, and NC data for the steel structure, among other things.

Evaluating and Documenting Steel Joints Analysis Results in RFEM 6
With the RFEM 6 add-on Steel Joints, you can analyze steel connections by using an FE model. This article demonstrates how to evaluate and document the steel joints analysis results.

New
- The design of the connection components is performed according to Eurocode EN 1993-1-8
- After activating the Add-on, the design situations for Steel Connections must be activated in the "Load cases and Combinations" dialog box
- For the design of the connection stability (Buckling), it is necessary to have the Add-on Structure Stability activated
- The calculation can be started via the table or via the icon in the top bar

How do I set a release for warping?
- How can I define a warping spring or a warping restraint?
- At which point on a cross-section are the supports and loads assumed for the calculation with warping torsion?
- The limit stress is activated, but my stress ratio is “non-designable” in the Stress-Strain Analysis add-on. What could be the reason?
- How can I deactivate the 7th degree of freedom for certain members or cross-sections only?
- How can I define a warping spring or a warping restraint?
