Concrete Foundations Add-on for RFEM 6

The Concrete Foundations add-on for RFEM 6 allows you to analyze and design reinforced and unreinforced foundation plates as well as block foundations. For block foundations, you can consider smooth or rough bucket sides.

The add-on provides intuitive input, high-quality visualization, calculations according to the Eurocode, and detailed control options. This allows you to design foundations quickly and efficiently.

New Concrete Foundations Add-on for RFEM 6

We present: Your all-in-one solution for seamless foundation design! The powerful Concrete Foundations add-on supports you in the design of both reinforced and unreinforced foundation slabs as well as block foundations. It is fully integrated into RFEM 6. This means that the add-on automatically adopts the internal forces determined in RFEM and updates them when changes are made to the global model.

The add-on is designed for efficiency and performs all relevant design checks, such as punching, sliding, and so on.

Whether in building structures, industrial projects, or research, with RFEM 6 and the Concrete Foundations add-on, you can streamline your workflows, save time, and achieve precise and reliable results.

Unlock the Full Potential of Your Foundation Design!

Design of reinforced and unreinforced foundation plates as well as block foundations
Graphical display with rendering
Geotechnical design checks according to Eurocode 7 (ground failure design, design of sliding, equilibrium limit state, uplift limit state, highly eccentric loading, highly eccentric loading in core)
Graphical and tabular output of the required reinforcement amount

Reinforced concrete design according to Eurocode 2 (bending design, punching, minimum reinforcements)
Detailed ultimate and serviceability limit state design checks and structural details
Output of design checks with formulas → no black box, but transparency and traceability!

Discover Key Features

Discover the powerful features of the RFEM 6 add-on, which simplify the analysis and design of foundations and ensure maximum safety and performance.

Foundations for Hybrid Structures

Whether a steel, concrete, timber column, and so on, the foundation can be defined under all materials. Foundations under columns made of surface components are also possible.
Comprehensive Eurocode Design

Make sure that your design meets the Eurocode 2 and 7 standards, with detailed concrete and geotechnical design checks, including punching shear, static equilibrium, and so on.
Adjustable Design Settings

Customize the design parameters to meet specific project requirements, providing flexibility and greater control over the design results and checks.
Full Integration in RFEM 6

Seamless operation within RFEM 6 eliminates the need for third-party software, reducing errors and saving your time. The add-on automatically recognizes the dimensions of the object to be supported.

Detailed steel structure, resting on reinforced concrete foundations, with precise connections.

Procedure

Creating the global structure
Creating and assigning a new foundation to a nodal support
Defining input data in the intuitive user interface (RFEM provides instant graphical visualization of the topology)
Checking the desired configurations for the design (RFEM provides you with standard settings for this purpose)
Start of the calculation
Evaluating the results graphically, in tables, and in detail
Printing result tables, graphics (optionally with reinforcement, multiple prints), and design formulas (with reference to equations in the standard) in the printout report
