Design of Hollow Section Node with Automatic Data Import or Manual Input

In the RF‑/HSS add‑on module, you can analyze the connections for nodes at which hollow sections join. RF‑/HSS performs the ultimate limit state designs according to EN 1993‑1‑8:2005.

In addition to the geometry and load transfer from RFEM or RSTAB, you can define the cross-sections and stresses on the node manually. This way, connections can also be designed without creating the truss model in RFEM or RSTAB.

Technical article 001656 presents a calculated example of a hollow section node.
