After analysis is completed for the chosen load cases, calculated reaction forces at foundation nodes can be displayed on screen using the Process – Results – Reactions command.

This feature is only available for load cases in Analysis Mode; it is unavailable for load combinations or in the other modes.

If the Display option is checked and the Apply button is pressed, the reactions for a chosen load case are displayed with green arrows at foundation nodes. These arrows are proportionally scaled to signify their magnitudes.

Users have the option to show either one of the six reaction components or any combination of them.

The Show Magnitude option adds text next to the arrows to display the magnitude of the reaction forces with correct units.

The Show Reactions for All Nodes display reactions at every foundation node at the wall bases. If this box is not checked, the program only shows interpolated reactions at walls corner nodes at foundation. This option is only applicable to walls.

Note that closing this diagram or invoking Reset Model does not remove the arrows from the screen. To remove the reaction arrow from the screen, uncheck Display option and then press Apply button.
