Lateral-Torsional Buckling Analysis with New Torsional Warping (7 DOF) Add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9
This technical article presents some basics for using the Torsional Warping add-on (7 DOF). It is fully integrated into the main program and allows you to consider the cross-section warping when calculating member elements. In combination with the Stability Analysis and Steel Design add-ons, it is possible to perform the lateral-torsional buckling design with internal forces according to the second-order analysis, taking imperfections into account.

Application of Connections to the Structure | Steel Joints
- The proposed connection can be applied to all selected nodes in the structure
- The location of the connection can be defined using the "Main" tab of the Add-on dialog box
- The design is performed for all connections in the structure and after the calculation, the results on all connections can be displayed
- The table shows the results for the individual connections, each connection is designed and can be saved separately
- How can I neglect torsion in the steel and timber design?
-
How do I set a release for warping?
- How can I define a warping spring or a warping restraint?
- At which point on a cross-section are the supports and loads assumed for the calculation with warping torsion?
- The limit stress is activated, but my stress ratio is “non-designable” in the Stress-Strain Analysis add-on. What could be the reason?
- How can I define a warping spring or a warping restraint?
