The printout report has been fundamentally revised in the new program versions.
Significant improvement points are, on the one hand, the modernized printout report design and, on the other hand, the non-modal printout report environment, which allows for parallel work in the program and in the report.
Moreover, there are numerous other improvements. For example, you can use the printout report manager to select the content quickly and easily, or using filter options, if necessary; it is now possible to output the design formulas used for the design and, in addition to the input data and results, to import the external data, such as PDF documents or 3D graphics, into the printout report.

In RFEM and RSTAB, you can visualize the flow field quantities of pressure, velocity, turbulence kinetic energy, and turbulence dissipation rate for the wind simulation.
The clipping planes are aligned with the respective wind direction.
