The evaluation of story drift in a building is crucial to ensure acceptable structural performance by limiting the drift amount. Excessive drift has the potential to induce system instability and may cause damage to nonstructural components such as partitions. This article outlines the procedure for establishing interstory drift according to ASCE 7-22 and the Building Model add-on in RFEM 6.
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.
Understanding steel connection rigidity is crucial in structural design. Often, connections are treated as strictly pinned or rigid, but this can lead to uneconomical or even dangerous designs. Explore how Dlubal Software's RFEM and Steel Joints add-on help verify connection stiffness and moment resistance, ensuring safer and more economical designs.
In this article, you will learn how to model and design cable structures in RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9.
In the "Import Support Reaction" load wizard, the "Free Loads" object connection type is available in addition to the "Manual" ones. This option saves you the task of manually assigning the support reactions to specific nodes and lines. The support forces of the connected model are applied as free loads in this option.
You can use the "spline with minimum curvature" surface geometry type to generate curved surfaces on the basis of the control nodes in the middle of the surface.
This can be used to model terrain surfaces, for example.
In the result diagrams in the surface point, you can simply select the mesh nodes in the graphic to display the detailed results at this point.
- Numerous component types, such as base and end plates, web angles, fin plates, gusset plates, stiffeners, tapers, or ribs for easy input of typical connection situations
- Universally applicable basic components (such as plates, welds, bolts, auxiliary planes) for modeling complex connection situations
- Graphical display of the connection geometry with dynamic updating during the input
- Wide range of cross-section shapes: I-sections, U-sections, angles, T-sections, hollow sections, built-up cross-sections and thin-walled sections
- Library in Dlubal Center with program template connections as well as user-defined templates
- Automatic adaptation of the connection geometry based on the relative arrangement of the components to each other – even in case of subsequent editing of the structural components
How can I change the units of result values?
How can I automatically unify two points that are close to each other?
What is the component-based finite element method (CBFEM)?
Is it possible to define one or more nodes on one or more members automatically?
I would like to use my account for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9, but apparently I'm not authorized to do so. Is there any way to allow this?
How can I export the deformed geometry of an RFEM 6 model?
