Export options
There are multiple export options within PREFAB for exporting to other file formats. This can be done in the viewer (Display of models) or the dedicated tab (Export to other file formats).
- Export to StruXML
- Wall elements results along edges
- Reactions
- Export to Excel
- Results
- Geometry
- Locked format
Export to StruXML
This creates a StruXML file to be used in FEM-Design. There are two main options:
Wall elements results along edges
Every wall is modeled independently ot the others. With loads automatically applied according to the PREFAB calculations. Every load combination picked for export is also automatically created in FEM-Design.
Points supports are added with a soft stiffness. They are used to counter minuscule equilibrium errors.
Reactions
Reactions, matching the calculation made in PREFAB will be generated as load in a FEM-Design model. Line loads for walls, and point loads for anchors.
It will keep the coordinates from the originally imported FEM-Design model. All selected load combinations will be created automatically.
Export to Excel
This creates an Excel file. There are two main options:
Results
The Result file will contain information about:
- Shell elements
- qRd : Design capacity [kN/m]
- u : Utilization as decimal [ - ] (1 = 100%)
- MAX results
- Rebar anchorages
- Loads
Geometry
The Geometry file will contain information about:
- Shell elements
- Holes
- Beams and columns
Exporting via: Export to other file formats
Exporting using the Export to other file formats tab gives you the full list options available for your calculation:
Exporting via: Display of models
Inside the Display of models, you can manually select elements, right-click, and then choose the export type you want:
