Knowledge Base Articles

This article shows how the “Time-Dependent Analysis” add-on is integrated in RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9. It describes how to define input data such as the time-dependent characteristics of the material, how to determine the type of analysis and how to specify loading times.

Activating the Modal Analysis Add-on and Selecting the Design Standard

Modal analysis is the starting point for the dynamic analysis of structural systems. You can use it to determine natural vibration values such as natural frequencies, mode shapes, modal masses, and effective modal mass factors. This outcome can be used for vibration design, and it can be used for further dynamic analyses (for example, loading by a response spectrum).

The fatigue design according to EN 1992-1-1 must be performed for the structural components subjected to large stress ranges and/or many load changes. In this case, the design checks for the concrete and the reinforcement are performed separately. There are two alternative design methods available.

Product Features

Feature 002670 | Fatigue Design According to EN 1992-1-1, Chapter 6.8

With the Concrete Design add-on, you can perform the fatigue design of members and surfaces according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Chapter 6.8.

For the fatigue design, you can optionally select two methods or design levels in the design configurations:

Design Level 1: Simplified design according to 6.8.6 and 6.8.7(2): The simplified design is performed for frequent action combinations according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Chapter 6.8.6 (2), and EN 1990, Eq. (6.15b) with the traffic loads relevant in the serviceability state. A maximum stress range according to 6.8.6 is designed for the reinforcing steel. The concrete compressive stress is determined by means of the upper and lower allowable stress according to 6.8.7(2).
Design Level 2: Design of damage equivalent stress acc. to 6.8.5 and 6.8.7(1) (simplified fatigue design): The design using damage equivalent stress ranges is performed for the fatigue combination according to EN 1992‑1‑1, Chapter 6.8.3, Eq. (6.69) with the specifically defined cyclic action Q_fat.

Feature 002671 | Seismic Design of Reinforced Concrete Members According to EC 8

The Concrete Design add-on allows you to perform the seismic design of reinforced concrete members according to EC 8. This includes, among other things, the following functionalities:

Seismic design configurations
Differentiation of the ductility classes DCL, DCM, DCH
Option to transfer the behavior factor from a dynamic analysis
Check of the limit value for the behavior factor
Capacity design checks of "Strong column - weak beam"
Detailing and particular rules for curvature ductility factor
Detailing and particular rules for local ductility

Feature 002640 | Design of RSECTION Cross-Sections in Concrete Design Add-on

In the Concrete Design add-on, you can design any RSECTION cross-section. Define the concrete cover, shear force, and longitudinal reinforcement directly in RSECTION.

After importing the reinforced RSECTION cross-section into RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9, you can use it for design in the Concrete Design add-on.

Feature 002415 | Improved Segmentation for Deformation Analysis

In the "Deflection and Design Support" tab under "Edit Member", the members can be clearly segmented using optimized input windows. Depending on the supports, the deformation limits for cantilever beams or single-span beams are used automatically.

By defining the design support in the corresponding direction at the member start, member end, and intermediate nodes, the program automatically recognizes the segments and segment lengths to which the allowable deformation is related. It also automatically detects whether it is a beam or a cantilever due to the defined design supports. The manual assignment, as in the previous versions (RFEM 5), is no longer necessary.

The "User-Defined Lengths" option allows you to modify the reference lengths in the table. The corresponding segment length is always used by default. If the reference length deviates from the segment length (for example, in the case of curved members), it can be adjusted.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Which products do you recommend for the structural analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures?

How can I generate an area load on members via cells in RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9?

How can I use graphic templates for multi printing of a reinforcement?

How can I activate the design with steel fiber-reinforced concrete in the "Concrete Design" add-on for RFEM 6?

Why does the load wizard "Member Load from Area Load" give unnecessary concentrated loads?

Although all the member design checks have been fulfilled, I get the "Not Covered Reinforcement" result. What is the reason?
