In this tutorial, you learn how to run a calculation on a structural project.
This tutorial guide through the following tasks.
- Open the Results layout and view the graphical information (diagrams) about the structure. This includes the impact of the forces, stresses, and reactions.
- Modify the Preferences of the diagrams so that the required graphic and labels are displayed.
- Display the results in a table form and filter the table to display specific nodes, bars, and/or cases, and to format the table. All of the tables work according to the same principles.
Note: To fully understand the information described in the diagrams and tables, engineering experience is essential. The software provides detailed information about the results, but the engineer is required to judge whether the model was defined properly and whether the element sizes are adequate for the situation.
