Module Extension
RF-STEEL Cold-Formed Sections

The RF-STEEL Cold-Formed Sections add-on module performs design of cold-formed steel members according to the Eurocode standards. This add-on module is an extension of RF‑STEEL EC3 and provides special features for the design of cold-formed sections, such as L-sections, Z-sections, C-sections, channels, hat sections, and CL-sections.

Activating Designs for Cold-Formed Sections in RF-/STEEL EC3

General

RF-/STEEL Cold-Formed Sections | Input

Since RF-/STEEL Cold-Formed Sections is fully integrated in RF-/STEEL EC3, the data are entered in the same way as for the usual design in this module. It is only necessary to select the design option for cold-formed cross-sections in the Details dialog box.
