With the stand -alone program RWIND Simulation, you can simulate wind flows around simple or complex structures by means of a digital wind tunnel.
The generated wind loads acting on these objects can be imported to RFEM or RSTAB.

Student Lessons: Engineering Mechanics | Internal Forces on Beam | Shear Force Distribution | Cut Face
This video explains internal forces on the beam. At the beginning, the positive and negative cut faces are shown. This is followed by the determination of the shear forces at the start and end of the beam.
Notes on Considering Flush Beam Strips or Intermittent Ceiling Supports in Reinforced Concrete Structures
According to Book 631 of the DAfStb (German Committee for Structural Concrete), Chapter 2.4, the structural behavior of ceilings changes if their continuous support by walls is interrupted in areas of openings. Depending on the length of the opening area and the plate thickness, measures are necessary regarding the analysis of the ceiling in the area of the opening.
Combination of Actions for Road Bridges According to EN 1991-2
In addition to the basic combination rules of EN 1990, there are other combination conditions for actions on road bridges specified in EN 1991‑2 that must be taken into account.
Creating Moving Loads in RF-MOVE Surfaces
RF-MOVE Surfaces facilitates the generation of load cases from different positions of moving loads. Based on the moving load's load positions, RFEM generates separate load cases for RFEM. Optionally, an enveloping result combination of all load positions is created.
