The process of creating temporary supports in RFEM 6 has changed since RFEM 5. In RFEM 5, they were created using the support function. In RFEM 6, you have two different options.
The first option is the definition of structural modifications; it is easier with the Construction Stages Analysis / RF-FORM-FINDING (see Link Describing Form-Finding Add-on for RFEM ) for more information about considering construction stages).
A detailed explanation of the temporary support definition has been given in the online manual.
