To generate a gravity wall loads report

To generate a report that lists all gravity loads on all walls to assist in designing the walls in the structural model, use the following procedure.

Before this report can be generated, the framing tables must be "built". Do this by invoking any one of the design modules.

The Loads on Gravity Walls Report is organized by story level. For each wall on a given story, the coordinates, length, thickness, tributary area, and loading information are provided.

  1. Either:

    select Post-Processing > Wall Loads

    or

    select the Wall Loads tool

    The report is generated in the current target.

  2. For Screen reports:
    1. (Optional) Select the Print tool to print the report.
    2. Select the Close Preview tool to close the report.

See Loading Information - Point Loads and Loading Information - Line Loads for a description of the variables listed on the output.
