The structural analysis software RFEM 6 is the basis of a modular software system. The main program RFEM 6 is used to define structures, materials, and loads of planar and spatial structural systems consisting of plates, walls, shells, and members. The program also allows you to create combined structures as well as to model solid and contact elements.
RSTAB 9 is a powerful analysis and design software for 3D beam, frame, or truss structure calculations, reflecting the current state of the art and helping structural engineers meet requirements in modern civil engineering.
Do you often spend too long calculating cross-sections? Dlubal Software and the RSECTION stand-alone program facilitate your work by determining section properties of various cross-sections and performing a subsequent stress analysis.
Do you always know where the wind is blowing from? From the direction of innovation, of course! With RWIND 2, you have a program at your side that uses a digital wind tunnel for the numerical simulation of wind flows. The program simulates these flows around any building geometry and determines the wind loads on the surfaces.
Are you looking for an overview of snow load zones, wind zones, and seismic zones? Then you are in the right place. Use the Geo-Zone Tool to determine quickly and efficiently snow loads, wind speeds, and seismic data according to ASCE 7‑16 and other international standards.
Would you like to try out the capabilities of the Dlubal Software programs? You have the opportunity to do so! The free 90-day full version allows you to thoroughly test all our programs.
Yes, this is generally possible.
If a tower structure exported from RF‑/TOWER is recognized, all model-relevant members of this add-on module are listed in the Allocated Members section. Here, you can also find the member numbers of the objects defined in RF‑/TOWER Equipment.
If the model was created without RF‑/TOWER Structure, the member numbers can be entered manually in the table rows. You can also use the button to define the components graphically in the work window of RFEM or RSTAB.
A user-defined wind load distribution is not provided in the Eurocode. In order to implement a user-defined wind load distribution in the RF‑/TOWER Loading add-on module, this can only be done after conversion to DIN; for example, DIN 4131:1993‑11; see Image 01, Window "1.3 Wind Load - Part 1".
Then, you can select the user-defined distribution in Window "1.4 Wind Load - Part 2" and define it in the adjacent table; see Image 02.
