Structure > Elements > Round

Rounding of hogging moments for continuous beams over several supports. A respective relevant rounding length is defined at the left and right sides of the support points.

Note: The bending moments stored in the load case pool or envelopes are not modified. The rounding is just applied in the stress calculation. Also rounding lengths are allowed which exceed the length of the element where it is defined. The stresses of all points inside the defined rounding region are respectively reduced.
