Deflection Criteria dialog

This dialog is used to assign deflection criteria to beams.

The Deflection Criteria dialog opens when Assign > Deflection Criteria is selected.

list	The list contains all the named deflection criteria in the model. Selecting one and then either Single or Fence to assign that deflection criteria to beams. By default, beams are assigned the first set of deflection in the list when the beam is created in RAM Modeler, and hence it is not necessary to make that assignment. It is only necessary for those beams for which a different set of deflection criteria is desired.
