�Headquarters in Tiefenbach/ Germany
About the dveloper Ing.-Software Dlubal
�Development in Prague/Czech Republic
�20 Years of experience in Structural
Analysis Software
�Currently have ~100 Employees
�Software is used World-Wide in 40 Countries
�Over 7000 Users World-Wide
�Just install and start working !!! No Special
training needed.
Why chose RFEM?
- Most Simple to use
� Input through Graphics/ Dialogues/Tables
� Completely object oriented – Just click on
any object and change the properties
�Locating an object or node is very simple
even in a huge model
�Solutions to handle singularities caused by
nodal supports or nodal loads
�Huge libray of predefined parametric models to suit various industry needs
Why chose RFEM?
- Huge library of parametric models
�The more interesting is user can create their own parametric structure library
�Cooling towers
�Tanks
� Silos
�Shells
�Shear walls
�Folded Plates
�Haunched Knee Frames
�Rectangular/Triangular masts
� And hundreds of other structural models...
Why chose RFEM?
- Huge library of parametric models
�Create objects using formula editor
Why chose RFEM?
- Parametric modelling
�Just change the variable in the formula, the whole structure will be recreated
including loadings ...Considerable increase in your productivity!!!
�Just create members, slabs, plates, walls, openings and solids – Program
automatically creates mesh generation... Connectivity problems are elminated !!!
Why chose RFEM?
- Automeshing capabilities
�Further Automesh refinements at selcted nodes..
�Just create objects/ surfaces program can auotmatically create intersections
Why chose RFEM?
- Automatic creation of surface intersections
�Very powerful options to model complicated surfaces and intersections of
various parts of equipments/structures
�Creates surfaces from members
RFEM for special applications
- Design of steel girders
�Buckiling analysis and calculation of buckling load factros
�Checking of surfaces for allowable stresses
�Design of curved beams/girders
�Design of beams with openings
�Design of beams with stiffners
�Optimization of tapered sections, which will be largely benefitted by Pre- Engineered
Building Construction Companies
RFEM for special applications
- Portal frames and optimisation of tapered sections
�Reactor subjected to large differential temperatures
RFEM for special applications
- Material non-linear analysis
�User can define the allowable stresses in the steel surfaces, program will report the pass
or fail with maximum stress ratios ..Extremely useful in the process industry when working
on storage tanks, Pressure Vessels, Heat Exchangers, Boilers and etc…
RFEM for special applications
- Design of steel surfaces
�Very comprehensive report generation with in few pages which saves large amount of
money towards printing.
�User need to specify the bore hole information, program automatically calculate C1 and
C2 values
RFEM for special applications
- Soil Structure interaction
�Option to specify the normal and shear springs, which is useful for modeling pile
elements
�Possible to carry out geometric non linear analysis
RFEM for special applications
- Geometric non linear analysis
�Cable elements: large deformation analysis is carried out according to Newton-Raphson
�Analysis and design of glass surfaces (with or with out layers)
RFEM for special applications
- Analysis and design of Glass surfaces
�Possibility to consider geometric non linear option
�Bolt modeling using contact elements
RFEM for special applications
- Modeling using contact elements
�IS : Design according Indian Code IS 800
RFEM for special applications
- steel member design for various country codes
�EC3: Design according to Euro Code 3
�AISC: Design according to AISC (LRFD or ASD)
�Calcualtion of Shear reinforcements in concrete plates, which is critical for
heavily loaded Slabs, Rafts, Machine foundations, Abutment Foundations and etc.
RFEM for special applications
- Thick plate design for concrete surfaces
�EC2: Design according to Euro Code 2
�Plate design for punching and cracked sections, Beam and Column design
�Tower Type: Triangular/ Rectangular
RFEM for special applications
- Telecom/Transmission Tower Modelling
�Library of vertical bracings
�Library of horizontal bracings
�Library of cross arms
�Tower equipments wizard
RFEM for special applications
- Telecom/Transmission Tower Modelling
�Tower loading wizard
�Different time histories can be applied in different directions simultaneously.
RFEM for special applications
- Dynamic analysis
�Outstanding presentation of results using graphics and tables
RFEM Print report functions
- Outstanding presentation of results
�Huge savings on printing costs because of smart representation of results summary
�Excellent interoperability with direct links and generic interfaces to exchange
models to various Analysis, Detailing, Plant Engineering and CAD software
RFEM import & Export options
- Excellent interoperability
�Import options � Export Options
�Stress & Fatigue design for crane runway and welds
�Deformation analysis
�Plate buckling design for wheel load introduction
Stand alone/Add on applications
- Crane Girder Design ( Din Code)
�PLATE-BUCKLING analyzes safety against buckling for rectangular plates
according to DIN 18800 part 3
�The plates can be reinforced with horizontal or vertical stiffeners (flat plate, angle,
T-stiffener, trapezoidal stiffener, U-section, bulb flat steel).
�The load on the edges of the plate is optionally user-defined or can be imported
from RFEM.
Stand alone/Add on applications
- FEM Plate Buckiling analysis for stiffened plates ( Din)
�Very comprehensive composite girder design
Stand alone applications
- Composite Girder Design ( Euro Code 4)
Stand alone/Add on applications
- Shape Thin Advanced Section Property Calculator
