Masonry Design in RFEM 6
Video
First Steps with RFEM
Description
This video shows the basic functions and options for the structural design of masonry structures.
Features:
- Stress determination using an elastic-plastic material model
- Design of masonry disc structures for compression and shear on the building model or single model
- Automatic determination of stiffness of wall-slab hinge
- Extensive material database for Austrian masonry products
- Automatic determination of material values according to Eurocode 6 (ÖN EN 1996-X)
- Option to create pushover analysis

Modeling and Determining Internal Forces for a T-Beam with a Masonry Wall Above
When modeling a reinforced concrete rib with a masonry wall above, there is the risk that the rib is underdesigned if the structural behavior of the masonry is not correctly considered and the connection between the masonry wall and downstand beam is not modeled sufficiently accurately.
- I would like to connect my masonry wall to a reinforced concrete slab. What is the best way to create a line hinge?
- How can I efficiently define line hinges on several surfaces?
- How do I create an imperfection based on a mode shape in RFEM 6?
- How can I carry out case-related design for different load situations?
- How do I create a user-defined Design Situation with my own chosen load combinations?
- My model in RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9 is unstable. What could be the reason?
- How can I import my AutoCAD model into RFEM 6 and have the cross section and material information transfer over?
- Is it possible to set load increments, save the results of each step, and view at which load increment the material is yielding?
- Why does the load wizard "Member Load from Area Load" give unnecessary concentrated loads?
- Although all the member design checks have been fulfilled, I get the "Not Covered Reinforcement" result. What is the reason?
