Calculation time with many Load Combinations

Continued from:

RFEM 6 file size and performance vs RFEM 5


also concrete add-on takes a long time to run for 103 members and about 350 load combinations. The "remaining time" has been stuck at 0:00:01 for hours now.

Hello PSA001,

Could you please send me the file in question?

Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank,

Thank you for your message.

I'm not allowed to share the model, unfortunately.

It would be useful if RFEM6 could export some metadata/performance information from the model (excluding project information) to help find problems.

Without a model, it is difficult for me to find the cause. When designing concrete structures, this setting often helps to speed up the design process:

Thank you Frank for the suggestion.

However, it didn't improve the situation, as the remaining time has been stuck for the past 45 minutes equal to "0:00:01".

envelope method ran under 2 hours, but now the problem is that deflections are not calculated because of the envelope method. Without these results, I would have to go back to the enumeration method and run it over night :confused:

We would like to get to the bottom of this and improve RFEM. Unfortunately, this is not possible without the file...

Frank
