The following technical article describes the creation of a user-defined platform for use on a four-sided tower in the RF-/TOWER add-on modules. First, start with an empty model of the 3D type and define four nodes. The numbering and position of these nodes are very important here.

Numerous nonlinearities can occur in a structural system. The RF-DYNAM Pro - Nonlinear Time History add-on module was developed in order to model them realistically in a dynamic analysis. To explain how the add-on module works, the procedure is described below with an example.

Plate girder is an economical choice for long spans construction. I-section steel plate girder typically has a deep web to maximize its shear capacity and flange separation, yet thin web to minimize the self-weight. Due to its large height-to-thickness (h/tw) ratio, transverse stiffeners may be required to stiffen the slender web.
