Nodal Load

The load can be entered by component (with regard to the respective coordinate system) or by direction (for example, rotated about a certain axis).

Nodal forces act positively if the load arrows point in the directions of the positive axes of the respective coordinate axes system.

The positive nodal moments act by right-hand twist about the corresponding positive global axis. In the program, the directions of the loads are displayed in the dialog box of the load entry in a preview picture.

Entering in RFEM and RSTAB

Nodal loads can be entered and defined in RFEM and RSTAB graphically by clicking "Insert" → "Loads" → "Nodal Loads" → "Graphically" or the corresponding button, or in tables using the Data navigator.
