Complete Quadratic Combination (CQC) Rule

The CQC (Complete Quadratic Combination) rule has been available in RFEM and RSTAB since version X.06.3039. In the General Data of the model you can activate the CQC rule, and for Load Cases of the "Earthquake" type two new properties are available: "Angular frequency" and "Lehr's damping".

You can then select the CQC rule in the calculation parameters of Result Combinations. The formulas and additional information on how to apply this rule are illustrated in the image.
