Adjusting Reinforcement Drawings
In RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro, reinforcement drawings are displayed after designing the foundation, where you can record all necessary structures of the reinforcement steel.
- How is the static depth d calculated in the bending design of block foundations (calculation as equivalent beams)?
- How can I enter the earth covering of a bucket foundation up to 10 cm below the top edge of the bucket in RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro?
- Which theoretical approaches are used in RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro for pocket foundations with rough bucket sides to divide the forces and moments and carry out the reinforcement layout?
- Can I apply an impact load to the bucket only, instead of to the entire foundation?
- Is it possible to reinforce a foundation with a pure reinforcing bar?
- I have to perform a recalculation of foundation in the existing structure and search for a design according to DIN 1045 or DIN 1054. In RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro, only the Eurocode is available. Do you have any other module for the foundation design?
- Why is it possible to switch off the individual design checks in RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro? This entails a risk to the user of switching off certain designs "by mistake" and designing a foundation undersized under certain circumstances?
- I have a foundation that is supported by adjoining frost aprons (distorting beam) in one direction (X- or Y-direction). From the determination of internal forces in RFEM, I get the horizontal support forces in the X- and Y-direction. This is correct. However, the foundations in the X-direction are supported due to the ice wall. Is it possible to "switch off" or neglect the support reaction from RFEM for the foundation design in RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro?
- I would like to save foundations with certain dimensions as a template in the database. Is this possible? The button for this is disabled in Window "1.2 Geometry".
-
The limit stress is activated, but my stress ratio is “non-designable” in the Stress-Strain Analysis add-on. What could be the reason?
