Analysis of Multilayer Surfaces and Application of Building Models in RFEM 6
Information About the Free Webinar
Everything I Expected and More
"RFEM is everything I expected and more. I’m having a blast learning the software and the webinars are fantastic."
In this webinar, we will show you how to use the structural analysis and design software RFEM 6 to calculate multilayer surfaces and apply building models.

Local Buckling of Flexural Members per ADM 2020 in RFEM 6
This article discusses the options available for determining the nominal flexural strength, Mnlb for the limit state of local buckling when designing according to the 2020 Aluminum Design Manual.
- The load distribution on my members looks different when using the Load Transfer surface vs. the Load Wizards. What is the reason?
- I received an error message “Surface of incompatible type... (Surface in upper plane of building story must be of ‘Load transfer’ type)” when running the calculation. What is the reason?
- How can I efficiently define line hinges on several surfaces?
- Why cannot I define a rotation when defining layers?
- How do I include the overstrength factor(s), Ωo in the ASCE 7 load combinations?
- How do I include the overstrength factor(s) Ωo in the ASCE 7 load combinations?
- How do I include the redundancy factor(s) ρ in the ASCE 7 load combinations?
- How do I create an imperfection based on a mode shape in RFEM 6?
- Why does the load wizard "Member Load from Area Load" give unnecessary concentrated loads?
- Why does the eHORA map of Austria give different snow loads than your Geo-Zone tool?
