Yes, it is.
First, RF‑STABILITY (or RSBUCK in RSTAB 8) can be used to determine the effective lengths for a structural system and certain loading.
They can then be imported in the "Effective Lengths" dialog box in RF‑/TIMBER Pro.

Mr. Kieloch provides technical support to our customers and is responsible for development in the area of reinforced concrete structures.
You can define built-up timber cross-sections, for example, channel, T, I, and box girders. Single elements are connected by rigid or semi‑rigid connections. Furthermore, hybrid cross-sections are available. In this case, a submenu provides an option to assign different materials to the individual cross‑section parts.
In the material library of RFEM, you can find plywood materials according to the US and Canadian standards ANSI/APA PRG 510 Plywood (USA/CAN).
For the fire resistance design of timber surfaces, you can display a charring diagram depending on the time of fire exposure.
It is also possible to print this charring diagram into the printout report.
In RFEM, the oriented strand board (OSB) material is available for the USA and Canada. The material parameters are taken from the "Panel Design Specification manual".
