This article discusses the results of the geotechnical analysis and their graphical and tabular display in the RFEM 6 program.
Given that realistic determination of the soil conditions significantly influences the quality of the structural analysis of buildings, the Geotechnical Analysis add-on is offered in RFEM 6 to determine the soil body to be analyzed.
The way to provide data obtained from field tests in the add-on and use the properties from soil samples to determine the soil massifs of interest was discussed in Knowledge Base article “Creation of the Soil Body from Soil Samples in RFEM 6”. This article, on the other hand, will discuss the procedure to calculate settlements and soil pressures for a reinforced concrete building.
The Geotechnical Analysis add-on provides RFEM with additional specific soil material models that are able to suitably represent complex soil material behavior. This technical article is an introduction to show how the stress-dependent stiffness of soil material models can be determined.
In this article, you will learn how to model and design cable structures in RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9.

Are you ready for the evaluation? Use the calculation diagrams, which show the distribution of a specific result during the calculation.
You can freely define the layout of the vertical and horizontal axes of the calculation diagram. This allows you, for example, to consider the settlement distribution of a certain node, depending on the load.
Your data are always documented in a multilingual printout report. You can adjust the content at any time and save it as a template. You can also add graphics, texts, MathML formulas, and PDF documents to your report with just a few clicks.
Do you want to model and analyze the behavior of a soil solid? To ensure this, special suitable material models have been implemented in RFEM.
You can use the modified Mohr-Coulomb model with a linear-elastic ideal-plastic model or a nonlinear elastic model with an oedometric stress-strain relation. The limit criterion, which describes the transition from the elastic area to that of the plastic flow, is defined according to Mohr-Coulomb.

A graphical and tabular output of the results for deformations, stresses, and strains helps you when determining the soil solids. To achieve this, use the special filter criteria for targeted selection of results.
The program doesn't leave you alone with the results. If you want to graphically evaluate the results in the soil solids, you can use the guide objects. For example, you can define clipping planes. This allows you to view the corresponding results in any plane of the soil solid.
And not just that. The utilization of result sections and clipping boxes facilitates the precise graphical analysis of the soil solid.
Why does the integration/support of my building in the ground below the ground level not work?
How can I set the deformations from an LC/CO or a construction stage to 0?
I want to consider the soil-structure interaction using one of the nonlinear soil material models. Why is it not reasonable to calculate the individual load cases with this model?
What value can I use for cohesion in order to avoid singularities?
The terrain surface of my soil to be analyzed is uneven. How can I edit the geometry of my soil massif for the modeling?
I have a license for the Geotechnical Analysis add-on and it appears as available to me. However, I cannot activate it. What could be the reason?
