If you define a parametric cross-section in the library using its dimensions, the geometric properties are coded in the cross-section description; for example, "TO 200/100/10/10/10/10".
In the age of BIM, data exchange between the various disciplines of structural engineering is becoming increasingly important. Since each software has its own specifications with regard to the description of cross-sections and materials, RFEM and RSTAB offer a conversion table (mapping file).
The description of load cases, load combinations, or result combinations is often longer than fits into the drop‑down combo box "Current Load Case, Load Combination, Result Combination or Module Case" in the toolbar of RFEM or RSTAB.
The name of the project/model from the General Data is shown in the header of the printout report by default. In RFEM 5 and RSTAB 8, the model name can be changed manually in the printout report independently of the actual name.
In addition to manually entering values, you can enter line loads in the "Member Load" dialog box using the "Multi-Layer Composition" function. This is a library that contains the compositions of several layers for applying loads. You can freely specify the layer structure using the parameters of description, thickness, density, or surface load, and comment for each layer.
