Question
How is coupling between individual layers controlled in the RF‑LAMINATE add-on module?
Question
Why it is not possible to design a biaxial bending with the RF‑/JOINTS add-on module?
Question
In FOUNDATION Pro, I get extremely large foundations of my structure or I have to enter a very high loading to satisfy the design of the highly eccentric loading in the core. What can be the reason?
Question
Why do the results of members and sets of members differ in the design?
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
When determining the effective cross-section properties according to EN 1993‑1‑1, EN 1993‑1‑5, or EN 1999̩1‑1, SHAPE‑THIN displays a warning message saying that the effective widths are only determined for straight elements. What does this mean?
Question
Which result combinations can I design with the RF‑/JOINTS Pro program, and what should I pay attention to?
Question
Is there a way to prepare an EC3 buckling check without setting the intermediate support manually, or is there a workaround that can speed this up?
Question
When designing seismic equivalent loads with a Response Spectra Analysis (RSA) in RFEM, how can I apply the modal response parameters Ie/R according to Sect. 12.9.1.2 in the ASCE‑7‑16 to my results?
Question
Is the Gust-effect (G or Gf) from the ASCE 7‑16 Sect. 26.11 considered in RWIND Simulation?
Question
I need to define different types of lateral intermediate restrains for a single element in RF-/STEEL EC3. Is this possible?
Question
Is it possible to perform automatic live load reduction in RFEM or RSTAB per the ASCE, IBC, or NBCC?

Question
Are the models and presentations from Info Day 2020 freely available, and can you send them to me?
Question
How can I create a drilled beam in RFEM?
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?
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?
ASCE 7 Orthogonal Directional Combination Procedure
How do I apply the ASCE 7 Orthogonal Directional Combination procedure (100% + 30% rule) to my seismic load in a static analysis?
Imperfection from Mode Shape
How do I create an imperfection based on a mode shape in RFEM 6?
ASCE 7 Seismic Load Combinations
I do not see the seismic load cases in my generated ASCE 7 load combinations (COs). How do I add them?
ASCE 7 Reduced Live Load Factor
My live load is less than or equal to 100 psf. How do I consider the reduced load factor in the ASCE 7 load combinations?
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?
Standardized Sections for AISI Design
Which standardized sections are valid for AISI cold-formed steel design in RFEM 6?
Custom Sections for AISI Design
Can I design user-defined (parametric) sections according to AISI S100 or CSA S136?
