| 1. | I calculated a steel frame with 20 manually created load groups with gamma-fold loads. Now I need the gamma = 1 times deformations. Is it only possible with the way as described below? 1) I have to copy each LG individually because several LGs cannot be copied at the same time. 2) I have to open each of the 20 load groups to set manually all factors to 1.0. Or is there an automated method to save a lot of time? |

| 2. | I need to simulate a curved wall element with some drilled circular holes in the surface. To create these holes in RFEM, I would normally draw a circle in the wall element to create the opening. But how do I draw a circle on a curved surface? |
RFEM 4.xx |
| 3. | Is it possible to copy several concentrated loads graphically in RFEM? | RFEM 4.xx |
| 4. | How can I set the reference material in composite cross-sections? | SHAPE-MASSIVE SHAPE-THIN |
| 5. | What is the easiest way to enter a scissor release in RSTAB? | RSTAB 7.xx |
| 6. | We want to reinforce a floor plate of a round container radially or tangentially. Is there a way to not calculate an orthogonal reinforcement but a radial or tangential reinforcement? |
RFEM 4.xx |
| 7. | Is it possible to combine two or more members (extending in an axis) to one single member? The generated intermediate nodes need to be deleted. | RSTAB 7.xx RFEM 4.xx |
| 8. | Is it possible to add different elastic moduli for the x- and y-direction in RFEM? | RFEM 4.xx |
| 9. | I would like to insert two additional load cases after the third load case. Is there a way to add additional load cases at any location, if I already have 20 load cases? | RSTAB 7.xx RFEM 4.xx |
| 10. | I have problems when entering the correct spring constants for framework structures, strip foundations etc. Are the translational springs, shear springs and rotational springs stiffness moduli (MN/m²) or bedding moduli (MN/m³)? | RSTAB 7.xx |
