For a calculation, I activated the "Detailed Calculation" option. Have the support loads already been specified with the reduced dynamic coefficient for the design of the substructure?
I used double members for the member input. Do I have to consider anything else, or is it better to enter a member with double cross-section properties?
I have to dimension a wall bracket as a steel brackets that I have modeled as surface components in RFEM 5. Which add-on module can I use to design it?
I would like to design banisters, so I have created a set of members for this. The cross-section is a hollow section. Can the stability analysis be carried out on the entire structure, or do I have to convert it into an equivalent member design with the specification of all supports in STEEL EC3?
During the calculation, I get a warning that some elements are connected to the buckling panel, but are not defined like stiffeners (see Image 01). What should I do?
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)?
When designing a beam, I would like to neglect the torsion included in the stability analyses using the filters described in Knowledge Base article #001498.
I define the filter, but the torsion warning appears at the same x‑location again. Do the design internal forces change, or why is that?
Is it possible to process the input data, such as effective lengths of several members or continuous members, in the add-on modules RF‑/STEEL EC3, RF‑/STEEL AISC, or RF‑/STEEL CSA?
