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.
In Schöck Isokorb®, the tensile forces are transmitted through the insulation layer by means of stainless steel and the compressive forces by means of steel microfiber-reinforced high-performance fine-grained concrete with PE‑HD plastic coating. Depending on the selected type, moments and/or shear forces can be transferred. This limited force transmission must be considered in the structural analysis.
Technical information according to EC 2 for Isokorb® includes an FEM guideline where the modeling is described.
Basically, the modeling in RFEM can be done using line hinges or line releases between the respective surface elements. There is the following distinction:
The detailed procedure for entering Schöck Isokorb® together with model files is described in the technical article of our Knowledge Base, which you can find under Links below. Furthermore, a webinar shows the modeling of a balcony slab using Isokorb®.
