RmSet : Load Cases

The offered editboxes and options represent the content of the current row in the list. Using the insert buttons or the modify button, the input will be written into the list. By 'Delete' or 'Delete All' row(s) will be deleted from the list. Scrolling the rows, the content of the editboxes and options will be changed related to the current row.

SettingDescription
Load case Load case to be added to the RmSet (s. examples)
Result for given envelope/envelope row Result of previously specified envelope(s) (s. above) to be added to the RmSet (s. examples)
Load case result Result of one load case to be added to the RmSet (s. examples)
Schedule Schedule name (may be left blank)
Load case name Name of the load case results wanted to be output
SettingDescription
1st selection arrow List of all user defined load cases (input load cases)
2nd selection arrow List of all user defined and internally generated load cases (result load cases)
Result component Result component to be output: Vx, ..., Mz .
SettingDescription
Stress Stress for the specified stress point
TAUY, TAUZ Shear stresses
SIGI,SIGII, SIGIII Principal stresses acc. to chosen mode (s. 'General')
Reinforcement stress for the specified attribute set
Tendon stress for the specified tendon
Elastic strain The function allows for presenting the longitudinal strain in the different stress points in the cross-section.

Note: The presented strain value is only the linearly elastic part of the total strain, i.e. the value recalculated from element forces by using the E-Modulus.

The values do not contain temperature strains, viscous strains due to creep and shrinkage and any non-linear strain parts due to material non-linearity.

All internal forces 6 rows for all internal forces will be added

A row with key 'Nx-Mz' will be inserted in the list

When the RmSet is saved this row has been splitted into 6 rows (1 per force)

Schedule Schedule name (can be left blank)
Load case name Name of the load case results wanted to be output
Stress point Stress point the stress wanted to be output for
Attribute set Attribute set the reinforcement stress wanted to be output for
Tendon number Tendon the tendon stress wanted to be output for

Example 1 - All internal forces of one envelope for rows MinMz to MaxMz

FORCE myload LC:Qy

FORCE myload LC:Qz

MOMENT myload LC:Mz

Example 2 - Internal forces Qy, Qz, Mz of two load cases

LCASE myload1

LCASE myload2

FORCE * LC:Qy

FORCE * LC:Qz

MOMENT * LC:Mz

Example 3 - All internal forces of two load cases

LCASE myload1

LCASE myload1

Nx - Mz * LC
