Masonry Design Using FE Method
Discover the Masonry Design add-on for RFEM to perform precise finite element analysis. Within the "DDMaS" project, the material model allows you to model complex masonry structures and to perform structural dynamic calculations.
- Stress determination using an elastic-plastic material model
- Design of masonry disc structures for compression and shear on the building model or single model
- Automatic determination of stiffness of a wall-slab hinge
- An extensive material database for almost all stone-mortar combinations available on the Austrian market (the product range is continuously being expanded, for other countries as well)
- Automatic determination of material values according to Eurocode 6 (ÖN EN 1996‑X)
- Option to create pushover analysis
Implemented for Masonry Design with RFEM 6

Material Model
To analyze masonry structures in RFEM, a nonlinear material model based on Lourenço’s approach has been implemented. It uses a composite yield surface according to Rankine and Hill to represent various failure mechanisms of masonry.
The model parameters are calibrated to match standard design curves, allowing for realistic simulation of masonry behavior in accordance with design codes.
