Load Generation on Uneven Cells

The load generators in RFEM and RSTAB, used to convert area loads to member loads automatically, require cells that are almost even. In the case of arc‑like structures, the cells often cannot be recognized automatically.

By default, nodes are allowed to deviate from the plane by 1° maximum in order to be identified as a component of the plane, which results in the correct recognition of cells. In cases of structures with larger deviations, you can adjust the corresponding values by detailed settings so the automatic load generation can still be used.
