Differences Between Load Cases and Construction Stages in RF-/STAGES

Why are the results of the load cases - for example, the load case of dead load - not identical to the first construction stage in the RF‑/STAGES add-on module?


Answer:

If identical settings are defined in the main program, the reason is often that the material partial safety factor is not taken into account in the load case (Image 01).

In the RF‑/STAGES add-on module, all calculations are always carried out in consideration of the partial safety factor. If this is not considered, it must be set specifically for the material.
