After generating the lattice tower model, the generated data are displayed in clearly arranged tables. The output includes all specifications for member hinges and effective lengths.
In order to check the data graphically, the Viewer function provides a full-screen display, which is also available in the input windows.
Knowledge Base
Finally, it is possible to export the generated model to RFEM/RSTAB with a single mouse click.
The complete module data are part of the RFEM/RSTAB printout report. The report contents and the extent of the results can be selected specifically for the individual designs.

First, it is necessary to select a tower type and the relevant materials and cross-sections. The tower geometry is defined by individual tower segments. Slopes can be defined via widths or relatively by geometry modification.
After entering the tower legs, you can specify various stiffening of the lattice tower. It is possible to enter detailed specifications of horizontal girts, inner bracing, and vertical bracing of a tower with unequal sides. An extensive library including parametrized bracing types facilitates the input.
In addition, there is an interactive graphic in all input windows.

Add-On
The Steel Joints add-on for RFEM allows you to analyze steel connections using an FE model. The FE model is generated automatically in the background and can be controlled via the simple and familiar input of components.
Add-On
The Structure Stability add-on performs stability analysis of structures. It determines critical load factors and the corresponding stability modes.
Add-On
The Stress-Strain Analysis add-on performs general stress analysis by calculating the existing stresses and comparing them with the limit stresses.
Add-On
The two-part Optimization & Costs / CO2 Emission Estimation add-on finds suitable parameters for parameterized models and blocks via the artificial intelligence (AI) technique of particle swarm optimization (PSO) for compliance with common optimization criteria. Furthermore, this add-on estimates the model costs or CO2 emissions by specifying unit costs or emissions per material definition for the structural model.
