About

The FEA program RFEM allows for quick and easy modeling, structural and dynamic calculation, as well as the design of models with member, plate, wall, folded plate, shell, and solid elements. Due to the modular software concept, you can connect the main program RFEM with the corresponding add‑ons in order to meet your individual requirements. The structural analysis program RFEM provides structural engineers with a 3D FEA program that meets all requirements in modern civil engineering. Efficient data input and intuitive handling facilitate the modeling of simple and complex structures. The structural analysis program RFEM is the basis of a modular software system. The basic 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.

About

StructSuite is free, browser-based structural design and load-calculation software for residential and light-frame buildings. It designs wood and steel beams and columns to NDS 2024 and AISC 360-22; floor and ceiling joists and rafters using 2024 IBC span tables; wood-frame shear walls drawn on the building plan to SDPWS 2021, with Simpson hold-downs and anchors; isolated and strip footings to ACI 318-25; and cantilever retaining walls with concrete or CMU stems to TMS 402-22. It also calculates dead, live, seismic, and wind loads to ASCE 7-22. Each step shows equations with project values substituted and a book icon quoting the governing code paragraph. The results can be assembled into one calculation report for plan review. The free plan includes every module, unlimited calculations, and one cloud project. Pro adds unlimited projects, PDF reports, and an online verification link for plan checkers; subscriptions cost $100/month or $1,000/year, and a one-week Pro pass costs $50.
