Evaluation of Deformations and Internal Forces at Hinges

Is it possible to evaluate the deformations and the internal forces of hinges?


Answer:

As of RFEM version 5.17, there is a graphical (only available for line hinges and line releases) and tabular output for this purpose. The latter can be found in the following tables:

  • 4.45 Line Hinges - Deformations
  • 4.46 Line Hinges - Forces
  • 4.47 Member Hinges - Deformations
  • 4.48 Member Hinges - Forces
  • 4.49 Nodal Releases - Deformations
  • 4.50 Nodal Releases - Forces
  • 4.51 Line Releases - Deformations
  • 4.52 Line Releases - Forces
