A line release allows structural decoupling of objects connected to a line. The release is controlled by hinge conditions, which may also have nonlinear properties.
Entering in RFEM
A line release can be defined using the menu "Insert" → "Special Objects" → "Line Releases" → "Dialog Box". In a dialog box, you can define release properties for the line as a "Line Release Type" and specify the released objects. It is possible to select the line release type in the list box of the existing types or define a new release type.
