Calculation of Support Spring for Wall

I would like to use the “Use wall” support type in RFEM 5. How is the internal spring for a wall calculated?


Answer:

The support spring is determined from the modulus of elasticity (E), the cross-sectional area of the wall (A), and the height of the wall (H) as follows:

Since the indication of the spring is displayed for the linear meter, the unit kN/m² results.
