Determination of Effective Sections
Advantages
Extend the cross-section program RSECTION with Effective Sections and discover many helpful features. For example, you can determine the effective sections according to the following standards:
EN 1993-1-5- EN 1993-1-3
- EN 1999-1-1

Input
The Effective Sections extension is fully integrated in RSECTION. So there's no second program and window chaos that make your work difficult. Therefore, all input options of RSECTION are available to you. You only need to specify the standard group in the Base data, according to which the effective cross-section is to be determined. After importing the section into the main program RFEM or RSTAB, it is available for design in the Steel Design add-on like a library section. Sounds good, doesn't it?

Results
Are you just waiting for your results after the design? The design results are displayed in the usual way in the Steel Design add-on. In the corresponding output tables, you can find the classification, the effective section properties, and the design check, among other things. The stresses are displayed to you graphically on the effective section as well as on the gross section.
