The members to be designed are directly imported from RFEM/RSTAB. Load cases, load combinations, and result combinations are assigned, which result in the linear-elastically determined internal forces on the selected members. When considering creeping, the creep-producing load must also be defined. The RFEM/RSTAB materials are preset but can be adjusted in RF-/CONCRETE Columns. The material properties listed in the respective standard are included in the material library.
You can easily define constructional properties of columns as well as other details for determining the required longitudinal and shear reinforcement. The effective length factor ß is to be defined manually, determined automatically by the module, or imported from the RF-STABILITY/RSBUCK add-on module.
The fire resistance design according to EN 1992-1-2 requires various specifications; for example, determination of cross-section sides where burn-off occurs.
