Hello,

The latest RFEM v5.24 and the add-on module RF-ALUMINUM ADM now include the recently released Aluminum Design Manual (ADM) 2020. Pair this with the standalone program SHAPE-THIN to create custom aluminum sections. Integrate custom sections into RF-ALUMINUM ADM for full design included local buckling checks.

Check out a previously recorded ADM webinar to see the program in action. Also, keep an eye out for an upcoming free webinar utilizing the latest 2020 standard.

Wind Loads on a Tall Building

The following study compares the wind pressure on a tall building obtained by RWIND Simulation with the results published by Dagnew et al. at the 11th Americas Conference on Wind Engineering in June 2009. In this paper, the Commonwealth Advisory Aeronautical Council (CAARC) building is used as a model and results of several different numerical methods are compared with experimental data obtained from wind-tunnels.

2018 NDS Updates for Cross‑Laminated Timber Design

The American Wood Council (AWC) has released the 2018 Edition of the National Design Specification (NDS) for Wood Construction. This is the second edition of the NDS to contain a chapter dedicated to cross-laminated timber (CLT) design. Therefore, a couple of revisions were included in the 2018 NDS when compared to the previous 2015 Edition.

Vibration Design of Cross‑Laminated Timber Plates

For wide-span ceilings, the vibration design of cross-laminated timber plates is often governing. The advantage of the lighter material of timber over concrete turns into a disadvantage because a high mass material is advantageous for a low natural frequency.
