Model Check

In addition to the general plausibility check, you can use the model check to specifically search for discrepancies that have occurred during the modeling. There are various options available under the Model Check entry in the Tools menu.

Identical Nodes

RFEM filters all nodes with identical coordinates. They are combined into groups and shown in a dialog box.
