Swiss Standards (SIA)
Standards and codes are important. Where do you plan your project and what do you have to pay attention to? When it comes to international standards, the Dlubal programs are reliable companions for customers from all over the world. You will find numerous standards integrated in RFEM and RSTAB, whereby the corresponding add-ons allow you to design steel, reinforced concrete, and timber structures. Here you will find an overview of the standards available in the programs for the respective countries.

Automatic Generation of Combinations in RFEM and RSTAB
Safety is also the top priority for your buildings in Switzerland. Using RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9, you can create load and result combinations automatically according to the Swiss standards SIA 260 and SIA 260 | Timber.
Timber Design According to SIA 265
If you are planning timber structures conforming to the design standards, you have come to the right place. In the Timber Design add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9, you can find all the typical ultimate limit state, stability, serviceability limit state, and fire resistance design checks of timber members according to the Swiss standard SIA 265.
Timber Design Add-on for RFEM 6
Seismic Design According to SIA 261
The Modal Analysis add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9 supports you when determining natural frequencies and mode shapes.
Another useful program is the Response Spectrum Analysis add-on for RFEM 6 / RSTAB 9. Here, you can perform seismic analyses using the multi-modal response spectrum analysis. Among others, you can find the Swiss standard SIA 261 implemented in the add-on.
