In RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro, reinforcement drawings are displayed after designing the foundation, where you can record all necessary structures of the reinforcement steel.
DXF layers of ground plans cannot be used directly in FEA programs because only the outer contours of the elements (walls, ceilings, and so on) are available in the drawing. The FEM programs require system axes, but only the outer contours of the elements (walls, ceilings, and so on) are available in the DXF drawing.
In RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro, the reinforcement to be placed in the foundation slab and, if necessary, the bucket links, is displayed in a 3D rendering and in the reinforcement drawings.
Printout reports created in RFEM and RSTAB can be transferred to VCmaster using a direct interface and further processed there. VCmaster (formerly BauText) is a word processing program for engineers. Calculations, drawings, photos, and documents from various sources can be easily compiled, managed and used again with VCmaster.
As an alternative to the conventional automatic arrangement of surface reinforcement in RF-CONCRETE Surfaces, it is also possible to set it according to the individual requirements. For example, this can be useful when creating of reinforcement drawings as the reinforcement areas are clearly defined and also include dimensions.
