Concrete Design for RFEM 6 Add-On

The Concrete Design add-on allows for various design checks according to international standards. You can design members, surfaces, and columns, as well as perform punching and deformation analyses.

Building Model

Building Model for RFEM 6 Add-On

The "Building Model" add-on simplifies the modeling and analysis of reinforced concrete buildings. It expedites the creation of building models and automates load generation, making it ideal for demanding reinforced concrete projects.

Geotechnical Analysis

Geotechnical Analysis for RFEM 6 Add-on

In RFEM, the Geotechnical Analysis add-on uses the properties from soil samples to determine a soil body to be analyzed.

Wind Simulation & Wind Load Generation

RWIND 3 – Basic Stand-Alone

RWIND uses CFD technology to simulate wind flows on structures and transfer the resulting wind loads directly into RFEM or RSTAB for the structural analysis.

Modal Analysis

Resulting Modular Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structure

Modal Analysis for RFEM 6 Add-On

The Modal Analysis add-on allows for the calculation of eigenvalues, natural frequencies, and natural periods for member, surface, and solid models.

Response Spectrum Analysis

Response Spectrum Analysis for RFEM 6 Add-On

The Response Spectrum Analysis add-on performs seismic analysis using multi-modal response spectrum analysis. The spectra required for this can be created in compliance with the standards or can be user-defined. The equivalent static forces are generated from them. The add-on includes an extensive library of accelerograms from seismic zones that can be used to generate the response spectra.

Time History Analysis

Time History Analysis for RFEM 6 Add-On

The Time History Analysis add-on supports dynamic structural analyzes with external excitations, where the excitation functions can be defined as time functions or accelerogram.

Concrete Foundations Add-on

Concrete Foundations for RFEM 6 Add-On

The Concrete Foundations add-on for RFEM 6 allows you to calculate and design reinforced and unreinforced foundation plates as well as bucket and block foundations.

Construction Stages

Construction Stages Analysis (CSA) for RFEM 6 Add-on

The Construction Stages Analysis (CSA) add-on allows for considering the construction process of structures (member, surface, and solid structures) in RFEM.

Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA)

Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA) for RFEM 6 Add-on

The Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA) add-on allows you to consider the time-dependent material behavior of members and surfaces. The long-term effects, such as creep, shrinkage, and aging, can influence the distribution of internal forces, depending on the structure.

Excellent Reliability and Transparency

For almost a year I have been trying to develop a type of intervention for the seismic improvement of simple reinforced concrete buildings built in the '60s/'70s, with the addition of bracing and dissipative elements.

I tried to design these elements with the RFEM trial version and was thrilled by the simplicity and the calculation's completeness. According to what I have found, it is possible to use RFEM to create very complex structures while maintaining excellent reliability due to a very strict and transparent inner structure.
