The printout report has been fundamentally revised in the new program versions.
Significant improvement points are, on the one hand, the modernized printout report design and, on the other hand, the non-modal printout report environment, which allows for parallel work in the program and in the report.
Moreover, there are numerous other improvements. For example, you can use the printout report manager to select the content quickly and easily, or using filter options, if necessary; it is now possible to output the design formulas used for the design and, in addition to the input data and results, to import the external data, such as PDF documents or 3D graphics, into the printout report.
Improved Printout Report
The coefficient θ is calculated as follows:$$\mathrm\theta\;=\;\frac{\displaystyle{\mathrm P}_\mathrm{tot}\;\cdot\;{\mathrm d}_\mathrm r}{{\mathrm V}_\mathrm{tot}\;\cdot\;\mathrm h}\;$$
In the "Edit Section" dialog box, you can display the buckling shapes of the Finite Strip Method (FSM) as a 3D graphic.
In RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9, you have the option to enter "Visual Objects" as guide objects. You can import the file formats 3ds, stl, and obj.
These objects allow you to create a better reference to the dimensions.
Mia is accessible in the programs and prevents the hassle of following up by email or phone.
Using the "Dashpot" member type, you can define a damping coefficient, a spring constant, and a mass. This member type extends the possibilities within the Time History Analysis.
With regard to viscoelasticity, the "Dashpot" member type is similar to the Kelvin-Voigt model, which consists of the damping element and an elastic spring (both connected in parallel).
