Design Checks for Steel Girder in RFEM 6
Video
First Steps with RFEM
Description
In this video, you can see how the effective length and boundary conditions for the stability analysis can be assigned to members and member sets. If that was done, the program can automatically perform the cross-section and stability design checks for this girder.

Evaluating and Documenting Steel Joints Analysis Results in RFEM 6
With the RFEM 6 add-on Steel Joints, you can analyze steel connections by using an FE model. This article demonstrates how to evaluate and document the steel joints analysis results.

Application of Connections to the Structure | Steel Joints
- The proposed connection can be applied to all selected nodes in the structure
- The location of the connection can be defined using the "Main" tab of the Add-on dialog box
- The design is performed for all connections in the structure and after the calculation, the results on all connections can be displayed
- The table shows the results for the individual connections, each connection is designed and can be saved separately
- How do I perform stability analysis to determine the critical load factor in RFEM 6?

How do I set a release for warping?
- How can I define a warping spring or a warping restraint?
- At which point on a cross-section are the supports and loads assumed for the calculation with warping torsion?
- The limit stress is activated, but my stress ratio is “non-designable” in the Stress-Strain Analysis add-on. What could be the reason?
