Modeling Weld

How can I model a weld in RFEM 5, for example, as a fillet weld?


Answer:

To model a weld or a fillet weld in RFEM 5, the best way is to use a surface. In this case, the surface thickness is equal to the weld thickness.

RFEM 6 provides line welded joints for this purpose, which greatly simplify modeling and design.
