Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Which stresses are most important for glass design consideration when using RF-GLASS?
- I would like to design a glass pane with temperature loads. In this case, a message appears saying that the load case includes the "temperature" surface loads types that are not transferred to the created temporary model. How can I consider the temperature loads?
- Is it possible to design a spherically curved glass pane in RF‑GLASS?
- How is the coupling stiffness determined in RF‑GLASS?
- A curved pane cannot be designed in RF‑GLASS. Why?
- Is it possible to set user-defined values of the standard in RF‑GLASS?
- Are there any programs or add-on modules specially developed for glass structures?
- Which method of analysis is used for insulating glass?
- How can I open the RF‑GLASS add‑on module?

Is it possible to consider loads on a glass pane from the structure in the calculation of RF-GLASS?
