Hello,

Structural glass design can be a challenge when you're utilizing software that simply isn't developed for this type of application. RFEM and the add-on module RF-GLASS can simplify and improve your glass design approach.

RF‑GLASS analyzes deformations and stresses of arbitrary shaped and curved glass surfaces of not only single layer glass elements, but also multi-layer laminated and insulated elements as well.  Design of the supporting structure is also possible per the USA and Canadian standards such as the AISC, ADM, and CSA with additional design modules in RFEM.
