Quick and Easy Generation of Loads
Total items: 6
Snow load generator
Snow loads can be generated as member loads on flat/monopitch roofs and duopitch roofs.
Additional snow loads such as drifted snow loads, snow overhangs, and snow guards can be taken into account as well.
The following standards are available:
-
EN 1991-1-3 (incl. National Annexes)
-
DIN 1055-5
-
CTE DB-SE-AE
-
ASCE/SEI 7-16
Wind load generator
Wind loads can be automatically generated as member loads on the following structural components (optional with internal pressure for open buildings):
- Vertical walls
- Flat roofs
- Monopitch roofs
- Duopitch/troughed roofs
- Vertical walls with roof
The following standards are available:
-
EN 1991-1-3 (incl. National Annexes)
-
DIN 1055-4
-
CTE DB-SE-AE
-
ASCE/SEI 7-16
Generating Member Loads from Surface Loads
Area loads can be automatically converted into member loads. There are 2 options available for this:
- Generate Member Loads from Area Load via Plane
- Member loads from area loads via cells
Depending on the selected option, you either have to define a plane via corner nodes or select cells in the graphic. The area load can either be applied to the entire surface or only the effective or projected surface of the members.

Generating Member Loads from Free Line Load
With this generator, you can e.g. for grillages, you can define free line loads (e.g. from conveyor belts) and prorate them to members.

Generating Member Loads from Coating
Coating loads can be generated as member loads from ice loads, claddings, and so on.
For this, you only have to specify the thickness and specific weight of the coating.
Manual RFEM 5
Generating Loads from Accelerated Motion
This generator creates loads as a result of an acceleration or rotation that acts on specific objects of the model.
The mass is determined from the self-weight.
