In the Geotechnical Analysis add-on, the member of the type 'Pile' is available. Pile resistance types are created for the pile. It defines the parameters for the resistance from skin friction and the pile end pressure.
The pile is then embedded in the adjacent soil solid under consideration of the resistance characteristics resulting from the parameters of the skin friction and the peak pressure.
In the Geotechnical Analysis add-on, the high-quality material model "Modified Hardening Soil Model" is available. This material model is suitable for a variety of soils and is able to appropriately represent the following properties of the real soil.
Stress dependence of soil stiffness
Load path dependence of soil stiffness
Plastic strains even before reaching the limit condition
Increasing shear resistance with increasing mesh refinement
Increasing yield strength with increasing stress until reaching the limit yield condition
Failure criterion according to Mohr-Coulomb
You can find more information about this material model and the definition of the input in RFEM in the corresponding chapter of the online manual for the Geotechnical Analysis add-on.
In the Concrete Design add-on for RFEM 6, you can perform the fire design of reinforced concrete slabs and walls according to the simplified table method (EN 1992‑1‑2, Section 5.4.2 and Tables 5.8 and 5.9).
In the Concrete Design add-on, you have the option to define an existing vertically oriented punching shear reinforcement. This is then taken into account in the punching shear design.
In the Geotechnical Analysis add-on, the Hoek-Brown material model is available. The model shows linear-elastic ideal-plastic material behavior. Its nonlinear strength criterion is the most common failure criterion for stone and rocks.
You can enter the material parameters using
Rock parameters directly, or alternatively via
GSI classification.
