Cold-Formed Steel Member Design According to EC3

RF-/STEEL Cold-Formed Sections is an extension of the RF-/STEEL EC3 add-on module. With this program, you can perform ultimate and serviceability state design for cold-formed steel members according to the following standards:

EN 1993-1-3
EN 1993-1-5

Features
- Available for cold-formed L, Z, C, channel, top-hat, and CL sections from the cross-section database, as well as for cold-formed, non-perforated SHAPE-THIN 9 cross-sections
- Determination of the effective cross-section considering the local buckling and the distortional buckling
- Cross-section ultimate limit state, stability, and serviceability limit state designs according to EN 1993‑1‑3
- Design of local transverse forces for webs without stiffening
Input

Since RF-/STEEL Cold-Formed Sections is fully integrated in RF-/STEEL EC3, the data is entered in the same way as for the usual design in this module. It is only necessary to select the design option for cold-formed cross-sections in the Details dialog box.
Results

The design results are displayed in RF-/STEEL EC3 in the usual way.
Among other results, the corresponding result windows include the effective cross-section properties due to axial force N, bending moment My, bending moment Mz, internal forces, and design summary.
