3 About RFEM

The 3D FEM structural analysis software RFEM is the basis of a modular software system. The main program RFEM is used to define structures, materials, and loads for planar and spatial structural systems consisting of plates, walls, shells and members. The program also allows you to create combined structures as well as model solid and contact elements.

RFEM provides deformations, internal forces, stresses, support forces, and soil contact stresses. The structure and load generators integrated in the program facilitate data input. Diverse add-on modules allow you to analyse plate and beam structures as well as connections according to various international standards.

The modular software concept allows you to compile a program package tailored to your © www.taros-nova.cz individual needs. It is possible to upgrade the program at any time.
