RF-TOWER Loading is an add-on module for RFEM that generates design-relevant actions for lattice towers, such as wind, ice, and live loads. In this case, the objects created in RF‑TOWER Structure and RF‑TOWER Equipment are also taken into account.
The module allows for considering the self-weight of a tower, including equipment, as well as a determination of wind loads acting on the tower and the equipment while taking into account the structures prone to vibration (gust-effect factor), an assignment of the surface and concentrated loads to platforms, the option to reduce the total wind load on the selected objects, and the generation of traffic load cases with surface and maintenance loads.
