Precast/Prestressed Girder Help

Diagram

Use the Diagram tool, or its respective icon, to display the results in a graphical format as shown in Figure below.

Use the lists at the top of the screen to select specific information to view. After the analysis has been performed, Moment and Shear diagrams are available for all beams. Half beam results only are displayed for stresses at release, positive stresses, and negative stresses. Also note the shear diagram plots the absolute shear values.

Select the Show All Spans check box to view the graphics by span or for all spans defined. Any of the diagrams displayed on this screen can be printed individually by clicking Print.

Note: Precast/Prestressed Girder will print in a “WYSIWYG” format. That is, the image will print exactly as shown on screen.
