In the toolbar of the table, you can start the calculation using the
button.
Design Details
After the calculation, an overview of design checks whose design criterion is not fulfilled and other errors that arose during the design checks opens in the table. Double-click the relevant table row to open the design details. Here you can see the formulas of the design in the dialog box section on the right and display the calculation with intermediate steps using
.
only displays the design criterion.
Design Ratio by Member
The table shows the design results in the "Design Ratio on Members" category, sorted by various criteria. If you limit the visibility to a specific member, the results are displayed only for this member. This way, you can see the results for a single stringer.
After selecting an object, you can use the
button to limit the visibility of this object or to hide the object. In the shortcut menu of the graphics area, you can specify whether the hidden objects should be displayed in the background.
Optimizing Cross-Section
The Steel Design add-on allows you to perform the design with a different cross-section than for the calculation of internal forces. This can be entered in the table in the input data under cross-sections. For standardized cross-sections, it is possible to optimize the cross-sections from their respective series in the cross-section library. Here, the smallest possible cross-section is selected from the corresponding row, for which all design checks provide a smaller design criterion than the limit value specified in the global settings.
