This article draws a parallel between generating an FE mesh for separate objects using the “Independent FE mesh preferred” option, and generating the mesh without using said option.
In this article, you will learn how to model a simple end plate connection in RFEM 6.
Utilizing the Steel Design Add-on, steel design is possible according to the AISC 360-22 standard. The following article will compare the result output when calculating lateral torsional buckling according to Chapter F vs. an Eigenvalue Analysis.
The evaluation of story drift in a building is crucial to ensure acceptable structural performance by limiting the drift amount. Excessive drift has the potential to induce system instability and may cause damage to nonstructural components such as partitions. This article outlines the procedure for establishing interstory drift according to ASCE 7-22 and the Building Model add-on in RFEM 6.
The design results of the add-ons can be optionally displayed in the tables by design situations. This allows you to evaluate the results in great detail.
In the combination wizard, you can create final result combinations using auxiliary combinations. In the case of models with many load cases (for example, moving loads for bridges), you can use this option to generate result combinations that are more transparent and thus easier to check.
In RFEM and RSTAB, you have the option to export several printout reports into a PDF file.
You can find this function in the Navigator – Data.
The "Results by Story" table of a building model shows the center of gravity for load cases and load combinations. In addition to the self-weight, the vertical loads of the respective load cases and load combinations are also taken into account.
You can also use the "Center of Gravity and Information About Selected Objects" dialog box to display the center of gravity, taking into account the selected loading.
How can I export tapered beams from Tekla Structures to RFEM 6?
How can I exclude the dead load in NBC load combinations when performing a deflection check?
The bending moments of members are displayed very small. How can I enlarge them?
The cross-section of a member suddenly twists about its own axis along a member in my RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9 model. Why does this happen and how can it be fixed?
How can I define a line load for only part of a member?
What is the meaning of the error message "Incompatible calculation options" for members with linear section distribution (tapers)?
