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.
The RFEM add-on Masonry Design allows you to design masonry using the finite element method. It was developed as part of the research project DDMaS - Digitizing the design of masonry structures. The material model represents the nonlinear behavior of the brick-mortar combination in the form of macro-modeling.
