Structural engineering FEA software RFEM is the basis of a modular software system. RFEM is used to define structures, materials, and loads for planar and spatial structural systems consisting of plates, walls, shells and members. The program also allows you to create combined structures as well as model solid and contact elements.
Use the stand-alone program RWIND Simulation for complex structures. This program simulates wind flows around any structures by means of a digital wind tunnel.
The generated wind loads acting on these objects can be imported to RFEM or RSTAB.
RF-GLASS calculates deformation and stresses of any formed and curved glass surfaces. It is possible to create all glazing types in the module, not only single layer glass, but also laminated and insulating glass.
There is an extensive material library available, including all common types of glass, foil, and gas.
Designs are performed according to the following standards:
The signature feature of the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in Kansas City is the glazed atrium that connects the main entry to both performance venues. The glass facade and the glass skylight are supported entirely by the cable structure. The design was conceived as a cello’s strings.
The railway station forecourt at Piazza Garibaldi has six hectares in size. You can find here parks, gardens and fountains.
Between 2005 and 2013, it was restructured along with the metro station of the same name.
The art project "Solhjul" (in English: sun wheel) by the Danish artist Bo Karberg is inspired by an 5,000‑year old disk wheel.
The sculpture of 12m-high steel and glass wheel in Give is now a new symbol of the town.
Salvador Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida, USA, contains the largest collection of Dalí’s artwork outside Spain.
The architectural highlight is the "Enigma," a glazed atrium that drapes over the side of the boxy reinforced concrete building.
Baku Flame Towers is a striking complex of high‑rise buildings in Baku, the capital city of Azerbaijan.
The complex consists of three 190‑m‑high towers in shape of a flame as a symbol of several oil wells in the region.
The new headquarters of the Baden farmers' association (BLHV) in Freiburg, Germany, is a unique building.
The timber structure is protected by a glass façade to counteract graying caused by weather conditions.
Four different point-supported glass chandeliers are focal points of the newly renovated shopping mall at Keystone, Indianapolis, USA.
Each chandelier consists of hanging glass plates, which are point-supported from brackets on stainless steel rings.

If the check box "Number of load increments" is deactivated, the number of load increments will be determined automatically in RFEM to solve nonlinear tasks efficiently.
The used method is based on a heuristic algorithm.
