In addition to the National Annexes (NA) listed above, you can define a specific NA, applying user‑defined limit values and parameters.
- Sensible and complete presetting of input parameters
- Punching design on columns, wall ends, and wall corners
- Optional arrangement of an enlarged column head
- Automatic recognition of the position of the punching node from the RFEM model
- Detection of curves or splines as boundary of the control perimeter
- Automatic consideration of all slab openings defined in the RFEM model
- Structure and graphical display of the control perimeter before calculation starts
- Qualitative determination of punching shear reinforcement
- Optional design with unsmoothed shear stress along the control perimeter that corresponds to the actual shear stress distribution in the FE model
- Determination of the load increment factor β via full-plastic shear distribution as constant factors according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Sect. 6.4.3 (3), based on EN 1992‑1‑1, Fig. 6.21N or by user‑defined specification
- Integration of design software by Halfen, a producer of shear rails
- Numerical and graphical display of results (3D, 2D, and in sections)
- Punching shear design with or without punching shear reinforcement
- Optional consideration of minimum moments according to EN 1992‑1‑1 when determining longitudinal reinforcement
- Design or analysis of longitudinal reinforcement
- Complete integration of results in the RFEM printout report
