I have calculated a pre-deformed structure according to the second-order analysis with RF‑STABILITY and RF‑IMP. Why are the deformations of the CO smaller than the applied pre-deformation?
I divided a member by several nodes. When applying the imperfections, each partial member is now assigned its own imperfection.How can I define an imperfection over all partial members?
I have generated a pre-deformed equivalent model using RF‑IMP by means of a pre-deformed FE mesh. Is the equivalent model considered for all load combinations, or do I have to make further settings?
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?
The inclination according to DIN 18800 is applied with the value 1/φ0 = 300. However, I would have expected 200 as the initial value for one-piece members. What is the explanation for this?
In RSIMP, I generated imperfections on the basis of a buckling shape from RSBUCK. After the generation, I only get the values for the inclination. Why are all precambers zero?
