The model shows the cable guying footing of a wind measurement tower in the Radstädter Tauern in Austria. The precise arrangement of the mounting anchors and connecting elements underlines the use of high-quality steel components in the foundation. The structural interplay of tower-bearing and truss structural systems is shown in detail. Developed by m3-ZT GmbH.

For reinforced concrete components and structures whose structural behavior is significantly influenced by the second-order effects, Eurocode 2 provides the general method based on a nonlinear determination of internal forces according to the second-order analysis (5.8.6), as well as an approximation method based on the nominal curvature (5.8.8).
The aim of this technical article is to perform a design according to the general design method of Eurocode 2, using the example of a slender reinforced concrete column.
The aim of this technical article is to perform a design according to the general design method of Eurocode 2, using the example of a slender reinforced concrete column.
This technical article addresses the direct deformation analysis of reinforced concrete beams considering the long-term effects of creep and shrinkage. The direct calculation according to Eurocode 2 (EN 1992-1-1, Section 7.4.3) is explained using a single-span beam. Particular emphasis is placed on tension stiffening, behavior in the cracked state based on the distribution factor (damage parameter), and consideration of shrinkage and creep behavior.

With the Concrete Design add-on, you can perform the fatigue design of members and surfaces according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Chapter 6.8.
For the fatigue design, you can optionally select two methods or design levels in the design configurations:
- Design Level 1: Simplified design according to 6.8.6 and 6.8.7(2): The simplified design is performed for frequent action combinations according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Chapter 6.8.6 (2), and EN 1990, Eq. (6.15b) with the traffic loads relevant in the serviceability state. A maximum stress range according to 6.8.6 is designed for the reinforcing steel. The concrete compressive stress is determined by means of the upper and lower allowable stress according to 6.8.7(2).
- Design Level 2: Design of damage equivalent stress acc. to 6.8.5 and 6.8.7(1) (simplified fatigue design): The design using damage equivalent stress ranges is performed for the fatigue combination according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Chapter 6.8.3, Eq. (6.69) with the specifically defined cyclic action Qfat.
The Concrete Design add-on allows you to perform the seismic design of reinforced concrete members according to EC 8. This includes, among other things, the following functionalities:
- Seismic design configurations
- Differentiation of the ductility classes DCL, DCM, DCH
- Option to transfer the behavior factor from a dynamic analysis
- Check of the limit value for the behavior factor
- Capacity design checks of "Strong column - weak beam"
- Detailing and particular rules for curvature ductility factor
- Detailing and particular rules for local ductility
The "Nonlinear Material Behavior" add-on includes the Anistropic | Damage material model for concrete structural components. This material model allows you to consider concrete damage for members, surfaces, and solids.
You can define an individual stress-strain diagram via a table, use the parametric input to generate the stress-strain diagram, or use the predefined parameters from the standards. Furthermore, it is possible to consider the tension stiffening effect.
For the reinforcement, both nonlinear material models "Isotropic | Plastic (Members)" and "Isotropic | Nonlinear Elastic (Members)" are available.
It is possible to consider the long-term effects due to creep and shrinkage using the "Static Analysis | Creep & Shrinkage (Linear)" analysis type that has been recently released. Creep is taken into account by stretching the stress-strain diagram of the concrete using the factor (1+phi), and shrinkage is taken into account as the pre-strain of the concrete. More detailed time step analyses are possible using the "Time-Dependent Analysis (TDA)" add-on.
In the Concrete Design add-on, you can determine the required longitudinal reinforcement for the direct crack width analysis (w k).
How can I use graphic templates for multi printing of a reinforcement?
How can I activate the design with steel-fiber-reinforced concrete in the "Concrete Design" add-on for RFEM 6?
Although all the member design checks have been fulfilled, I get the "Not Covered Reinforcement" result. What is the reason?
In RFEM 6, is it possible to display a graphic with the distribution of the required reinforcement in the DIN A0 format?
Is it possible to display the reinforcement description in RFEM 6?
Can the RFEM 6 Concrete Design add-on automatically design member and surface reinforcement?
