To create an imperfection based on a mode shape, the Structure Stability Add-on is required. In this way, mode shapes can be determined for a load case or a load combination based on its axial force state. The resulting mode shape can be selected and scaled after creating an imperfection case. The video shows the procedure.
Imperfection from Mode Shape
How do I create an imperfection based on a mode shape in RFEM 6?
Mr. Rehm is responsible for developing products for timber structures, and he provides technical support for customers.
In the ultimate configuration of the steel joint design, you have the option to modify the limit plastic strain for welds.
The "Base Plate" component allows you to design base plate connections with cast-in anchors. In this case, plates, welds, anchorages, and steel-concrete interaction are analyzed.
In the "Edit Section" dialog box, you can display the buckling shapes of the Finite Strip Method (FSM) as a 3D graphic.
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.
