Question

The design is not successfully accomplished in RF‑/STEEL or in RF‑/STEEL EC3. RF /STEEL EC3 displays the warning "Maximum allowable thickness of material exceeded". What should I do?


Answer:

One or more stress points of the cross-section have a thickness that is not covered by the material properties. Therefore, the add-on modules cannot use any yield strength for the design and the warning is displayed.

Please select another material that covers the thickness range, or change the thickness range of the existing material.
