Product Features

For load combinations, the difference results to the initial state can optionally be output. For example, in the case of geotechnical analysis, it is possible to output the settlement as a difference to the initial state "soil self-weight".

Table values from a prepared Excel table can be imported into RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9 either individually or all at once. For the import, it is necessary to install a plug-in in Microsoft Excel; see this FAQ.

All RFEM/RSTAB tables, including the results, can be exported individually or all at once directly into an Excel table and as a CSV file. There are several options available:

• With table headers
• Selected objects only
• Filled rows only
• Only filled tables
• Export data as plain text

This way, you can control and clearly manage the exported data. The stored formulas can be exported directly in the table or as a separate table, as in the case of the used parameters.

Rectangular cross-sections can be connected directly to each other or to other cross-sections using welds. Furthermore, it is possible to connect rectangular cross-sections to other structural components using other components, such as end plates.

In the 'Design types' tab in the member properties, you can optionally display the real element geometry. This function allows you to clearly display

Node, line and surface releases are used to define transfer conditions between objects. For example, members, surfaces and solids can be released from a line. The releases can also have nonlinear properties, such as 'Fixed if positive n', 'Fixed if negative n' and so on.

Surfaces can be extruded into a shell. The desired surface properties are placed between the boundary lines of the surface and the copied lines.

Surfaces can be extruded into members. The program places a desired member property on the lines generated by the extrusion.
