The construction site can be specified on a digital map. In addition to the address data (including the altitude), the snow load zone, wind zone, and seismic zone are automatically imported. This data is in turn used by the load wizards.
Import of Construction Site for Load Determination
Shear walls and deep beams of a building model are available as independent objects in the design add-ons. This allows for faster filtering of the objects in results, as well as better documentation in the printout report.
The building story generator in the Building Model add-on allows you to automatically create building stories, depending on the topology of the model.
In the Concrete Design provides an option to perform seismic design according to AISC 341-16 for steel members.
Five SFRS types (Seismic Force-Resisting Systems) are available for this.
The combination wizard provides you with the option to consider more than one initial state. RFEM and RSTAB allow you to specify different initial states (prestress, form-finding, strain, and so on) for the target combinations in the combinatorics.
You can thus, for example, generate load states on the basis of a form-finding analysis with varying imperfections.
