Features of the Modal Analysis Add-on for RFEM 6
The dynamic analysis in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 is divided into several add-ons. This article will show you some of the main features of the Modal Analysis Add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9.

Compared to the RF‑SOILIN add-on module (RFEM 5), the following new features have been added to the Geotechnical Analysis add-on for RFEM 6:
- Creation of the layered soil as a 3D model from the entirety of the defined soil samples
- Recognized material law according to Mohr-Coulomb for soil simulation
- Graphical and tabular output of stresses and strains at any depth of the soil
- Optimal consideration of the soil-structure interaction on the basis of an overall model
-
What value can I use for cohesion in order to avoid singularities?
- The terrain surface of my soil to be analyzed is uneven. How can I edit the geometry of my soil massif for the modeling?
- When designing a foundation slab under a circular tank, the contact stress in the middle of the surface is not displayed. What could be the reason?
- How do I set a release for warping?
