You have the option to exclude objects such as members, surfaces, and so on, from the design by load combination (CO)/result combination (RC). You can enter the data in the 'Objects to Exclude' tab of the table. Thus, you can design certain objects only with certain load combinations. This option is available in all design add-ons with the exception of the 'Steel Joints' add-on.

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.
