Strength of Weld-Affected Zone for Aluminum
How do I consider the strength of weld-affected zone for aluminum?
Welds in RFEM 6
In the case of stairs with a complicated geometry, it is often difficult to design welds by using the analytical methods. How can I do this with RFEM?
Tapered Member in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9
I would like to model a frame beam with a tapered cross-section. For this, I have created a member with the cross-section distribution "Tapered at member start". However, the resulting cross-section is displayed incorrectly in the rendering. What is the problem here?
Weld
Is it possible to calculate the weld stresses between surfaces with RFEM 6?
Consideration of Heat Affected Zone for Aluminum
Is it possible to consider the reduction of strength in the heat affected zone (HAZ) in the RF‑/ALUMINUM add-on module?
Question
I was checking the cross-section properties of rolled cross-sections in SHAPE‑THIN and found out that there are discrepancies with the tables when determining the torsional constant It. How can this be explained?
Question
How do I create a frame joint with taper in JOINTS Steel - Rigid?
Modeling of Tapered Member
In RFEM/RSTAB, I have defined a tapered member consisting of two different cross-sections. This is now displayed incorrectly in the rendering (see the "Incorrect Taper" graphic). What did I do wrong?
Question
Is it possible to design intermittent welds in the CRANEWAY add-on module?
Question
How can I model a weld, for example, as a fillet weld?
Question
How can I additionally model welds for the connection of two surfaces with a contact solid?
Question
What is the purpose of a fillet weld in SHAPE‑THIN?
Question
I get a message saying that the General Method is only allowed for I-sections, even though I do want to design an I-section. Why?
Question
When calculating a cross-section, I get a message saying that the weld is not connected to two elements. What should I do?
Question
I would like to use the CRANEWAY add-on module to design a suspension crane. Where are design points 0, 1, and 2 for the stress analysis on the bottom flange and for the fatigue design?
Question
Why does the direction of a cutting pattern edge line in the support area change abruptly?
Question
Is it possible to avoid the extended bottom when defining an end plate, and to arrange a single-bevel groove weld? If not, what is the size of the extension?
Question
The welds of a column head plate are very small. What is the reason?
Question
What is the meaning of the "Activate Weld Design" option in the detailed settings of RF‑/STEEL EC3?
Question
The design of the premature weld failure at the fin plate is governing for the design of a pinned beam connection with JOINTS.
What exactly does the design of the premature weld failure consider, and is it necessary to perform it in every case?
Welded Members
What is the best way to model two welded members that lie parallel to each other?
Question
Does the fatigue design in CRANEWAY also consider welded stiffeners?
Question
What is the difference between "with shear connection" and "without shear connection" in the case of built-up cross-sections?
Question
Why is the compensated cutting pattern length of a membrane surface incompatible with the defined compensation?
Why is the compensated cutting pattern length of a membrane surface incompatible with the defined compensation?
