Question
How is coupling between individual layers controlled in the RF‑LAMINATE add-on module?
RF-LAMINATE Library
How is it possible to display the RF‑LAMINATE library? We would like to check that it is up to date.
Question
How do I determine the stiffness center of my structural system?
Question
Is it possible to perform design for a timber-concrete composite cross-section?
Elastic critical moment for lateral-torsional buckling
What are the options in RFEM 5 or RSTAB 8 for determining the ideal elastic critical moment for lateral-torsional buckling for any cross-sections and systems/loads? Is it also possible to design flat steel (brackets, flat steel stringers of staircases)?
Question
Does RF‑STEEL AISC perform torsion design per Design Guide No. 9?
Hybrid Timber Cross-Section
Is it possible to display stresses of hybrid timber cross-sections in RFEM 5 and RSTAB 8?
Question
I need to define different types of lateral intermediate restrains for a single element in RF-/STEEL EC3. Is this possible?
Question
After running the design in RF‑STEEL AISC, I receive error message 1002 - Invalid cross-section of type "Channel" according to F2. What does this error mean?
Question
Can RF‑STEEL AISC optimize cross-sections for serviceability?

Question
Are the models and presentations from Info Day 2020 freely available, and can you send them to me?
Question
I am performing a design in RF‑/STEEL AISC for result combinations from RF‑/DYNAM Pro and get the error message "Not designable - Null value of the critical moment on the segment". What should I do?
Question
How can I create a curved or arched section?
Imposed Loads with Stiffness Modifications
I have defined temperature loads, strain loads, or a precamber. Once I modify stiffnesses, the deformations are no longer plausible.
Importing Properties of Another Element
Is it possible to transfer properties, such as the cross-section, or the surface thickness as well as the material of a surface, of an existing element to a new element?
Stability Design in RF-STEEL AISC
Why are my steel members not being designed for stability in RF-STEEL AISC?
Question
RF‑STEEL AISC add-module shows non-designable results for general cross-sections because of shear buckling checks according to Chapter G. How do I solve this?
Question
I am designing a cross-section created in the SHAPE‑THIN program using the design add-on module, but the program shows the error message "ER006 Invalid type of c/t-part for cross-section of type General". What can I do?

Materials of National Annexes
Where can I find the materials for the corresponding National Annexes in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9?
Effective Lengths for Steel Stability Design
How do I define effective lengths when designing steel members in RFEM 6?
Redundancy Factors
How do I include the redundancy factor(s) ρ in the ASCE 7 load combinations?
Overstrength Factors
How do I include the overstrength factor(s) Ωo in the ASCE 7 load combinations?
Exclude Lateral Torsional Buckling Check
My beam has a continuous lateral support and therefore lateral torsional buckling (LTB) is not a concern. How do I define the effective length?
