You can analyze masts and towers using the programs
RFEM 5 or
RSTAB&nbnsp;8. The add-on modules for steel or concrete structures support your individual solution approaches.
Special add-on modules from the
RF‑/TOWER series extend and simplify the options.
Main Programs RFEM 5 or RSTAB 8
The main programs are used to define structures and materials as well as actions.
RSTAB 8 allows you to edit and analyze beam, frame, and truss structures, such as lattice towers. RFEM 5 also provides plate, wall, shell, and solid elements.
Add-on Modules
RF-/TOWER Structurehelps to perform efficient generation of three- or four-sided tower structures.
RF-/TOWER Effective Lengthsdetermines the effective lengths of members that are specific for towers.
RF-/TOWER Designperforms member design checks according to EN 1993‑1‑1, EN 1993‑3‑1, and EN 50341, including the National Annexes.
RF-/JOINTS Steel Towerdesigns nominally pinned bolted connections used in lattice towers according to EN 1993‑1‑8.
Wind Analysis in Digital Wind Tunnel
Use
RWIND Simulation for advanced analysis of wind flow behavior. The results can be used directly as loads or load cases in RFEM 5 or RSTAB 8.
Dynamic Analysis
If it is necessary to perform seismic analysis or vibration designs, the RF‑/DYNAM Pro add-on modules provide special tools for determining natural frequencies and mode shapes, analysis of forced vibrations, generation of equivalent loads, or nonlinear time history analysis.
