This article deals with rectilinear elements whose cross-section is subjected to axial compressive force. The purpose of this article is to show how quite a lot of parameters defined in the Eurocodes for concrete column calculation are considered in the RFEM structural analysis software.
KB 001710 | Design of Concrete Columns Subjected to Axial Compression with RF-CONCRETE Members
The reinforcement proposal from RF-/CONCRETE Members can be exported to Revit. The rectangular and circular cross-sections are currently supported.
The reinforcement bars can be modified retroactively in Revit.
In the RFEM add-on Surface Concrete Design allows you to perform the fire design according to the simplified table method (EN 1992-1-2, Chapter 5.4.2 and Table 5.8 and 5.9) for walls and ceilings made of reinforced concrete.
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.
Do you have individual column sections and angled wall geometries, and need punching shear design for them?
No problem. In RFEM 6, you can perform punching shear design not only for rectangular and circular sections, but for any cross-section shape.
