About RFEM

RFEM 6 is a finite element analysis (FEA) software created by Dlubal Software. It is a 3D structural analysis and design solution for engineers working on a range of structures, from single-span girders to complex 3D shell structures. RFEM 6 allows for fast and efficient modeling of these structures, which can consist of plates, walls, shells, and members.

The software offers features to support structural engineers. RFEM 6 provides linear and nonlinear structural analysis capabilities, including second-order and large deformation analysis. It also integrates with add-ons, enabling users to carry out additional analyses and design checks according to various international standards for concrete, steel, timber, and other materials.

RFEM 6 has a user-friendly and intuitive interface, which facilitates efficient modeling and result evaluation. The program's input technology allows users to quickly learn to operate the software and create simple to complex structural models effectively and intuitively.

DLUBAL TOP EXPERTS - Gratulation to this excellent presentation " How to perform the nonlinear analysis of a solid wall girder with RFEM 6"

I think Dlubal provides exemplary support to Dlubal users with its AI support round the clock. This is very important! And in difficult cases, I think top-class experts are always available to provide helpful support at short notice!

Pros:

Dlubal GMNIA, this nonlinear method for verifying the sufficient load-bearing capacity of the selected beam section based on the determined LF (here = 1.82) against the design load, is exemplary! Congratulations to Dr.-Ing. Jons Bien for his impressive presentation and to Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Hörold for his competent support with so many detailed questions from participants.

Cons:

Nothing, at all. Dlubal Software represents a highlight in statics as well dynamics technology absolutely conforming code of best practice.

My life Before an After RFEM6: a whole different world!

It's always a pleasure to ANALYSE the results of the analysisi that you run: The graphics, the interface, the documentation and so on.

Pros:

That it os possible to introduce ANY required variable for a structural Design! Then perform de analysis AND complete the Design!

Cons:

Well, you got to invest some time to learn all the corners and tools that are at your disposal to performa every task on the model - Analysis - Desing phase of your project!

Reasons for choosing RFEM

Because Dlubal Latam gave the opportunity to split the payment in several small parts after paying half the price! Honestly, if such opportunity would have not been offered, I wouldn0t have been able to make the purchase!

Reasons for switching to RFEM

The capabilities from RFEM to use "beam results" and "Surface results" were the breaking to me!!! Those are guilty that I decided to purchase RFEM6, when I nearly knew NOTHING about the program!
