Frame & Truss Analysis Software RSTAB 9 | Features

We are constantly developing Dlubal's structural analysis software so that you can benefit from powerful features. Use the successful frame and truss analysis software RSTAB for the calculation of 2D or 3D frame and truss structures made of steel, concrete, timber, aluminum, or other materials.

RSTAB allows you to quickly and easily define the structural model and then calculate the internal forces, deformations, and support reactions. Add-ons are available for design checks, allowing you to consider material and code-specific conditions.

Powerful Features in RSTAB 9

RSTAB 9 offers numerous helpful features that support you in the structural analysis of frame & truss structures.

Main Features in RSTAB 9

Discover powerful tools that enhance modeling and analysis.

  • Wind Simulation (RFEM or RSTAB Environment)

    Discover the new features in RFEM and RSTAB for determining wind loads using RWIND:

    • Helpful load wizards for generating wind load cases with different flow fields in different wind directions
    • Wind load cases with freely assignable analysis settings, including user-defined specifications for wind tunnel size and wind profile
    • Comprehensive display of the wind tunnel with input wind profile and input wind turbulence intensity profile
    • Visualization and use of RWIND simulation results
    • Global definition of a terrain (horizontal planes, inclined plane, table)
  • Integration of All Add-ons

    Discover the advantages of working with the wide range of add-ons for RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9. All add-ons are integrated into the programs. This allows the individual program components to interact with each other and ensures that your calculations and design checks are carried out smoothly. Examples include the determination of the ideal tilting moment of timber beams using the “Warping Torsion (7 DOF)” add-on or the consideration of staggered shape finding processes using the “Construction Stages Analysis (CSA)” add-on.

  • Dlubal Center

    The Dlubal Center ensures that your design projects are completed quickly and efficiently. Among other things, your projects and model files are managed in one central location. Detailed information and graphics make it easy to assign all models and allow for uncomplicated, clear order processing. Furthermore, the Dlubal Center organizes your customer data, including licensed programs, add-ons, and so on.

Improved Printout Report

Discover the fundamentally revised and optimized printout report. It offers you the following innovations, among other things:

  • Quick creation due to non-modal printout report environment (parallel work in program and report possible)
  • Interactive modification of chapters as well as creation of new user-defined chapters
  • Import of PDFs, formulas, 3D graphics, and so on
  • Output of the design check formulas used in the design (including a reference to the used equation from the standard)
  • Modern printout report design

Features of the revised and optimized printout report in RSTAB 9, highlighting interactive modification and import capabilities.

Output of Design Check Formulas

With Dlubal Software, you always have an overview, regardless of whether your projects are from the reinforced concrete, steel, timber, aluminum, or another industry.

The program clearly displays the design check formulas used in your design (including a reference to the used equation from the standard). These design check formulas can also be included in the printout report.

Import of Construction Site for Load Determination

Always keep an eye on the natural conditions of your construction site by defining it on a digital map. The address data (including the altitude) as well as the snow load zone, wind zone, and seismic zone are imported automatically. The load wizard also uses these data.

The map is also displayed with the construction site marked in the "Model Parameters" tab.

What other features would you expect?

The RSTAB 9 program is constantly being developed and new features are being added. Discover what else it can provide and take your projects to a new level!

Calculation Diagrams in RFEM

Creating Calculation Diagrams

Do you want to create calculation diagrams? With RFEM and RSTAB, this works globally and without any problems. Use calculation diagrams to record and display a relation between the various calculation results.

Overlapping Display of Results of Two Similar Members

Improved Result Diagram Window

Discover the features in the result diagram window, which allows parallel work in both the diagram window and the model, and offers an optional overlapping display of results, such as several similar structural components in one image.

Unit Stresses of Steel Cross-Section

Cross-Section Unit Stresses

Make sure that nothing collapses: To enable you to estimate the load-bearing capacity of member cross-sections, display the unit stresses (related to N = 1 kN, My = 1 kNm, and so on).

Defining Member Representatives for Concrete Design

Member and Member Set Representatives

Define representatives for members with identical properties to easily display results in tables.

Snow Load Wizard

Extension of Snow and Wind Load Wizards

Discover the new features of the snow and wind load wizard: loading of hybrid models (RFEM only), connection to the Geo-Zone tool (depending on the construction site), and deactivation of surface sides.

Clipping Box

Clipping Box

Keep an eye on what is really relevant to your project. In addition to the clipping plane, you can now define a clipping box. This allows you to hide irrelevant objects around a focus point.
