Name of the label used for storing the results of a certain camber state at a certain position within the stage calculation The results will be stored in load cases named #stage-name#label. Automatic labels beg and end will be set when using the respective check boxes in the stage window instead the DoCamber action (see Construction stage: New/Modify/Copy ). |

Variant II - Generate the camber load cases at the position of horizontal level
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Input of * mandatory, which will generate the load cases with the camber results for all labels at a certain position in the stage calculation where there should be the horizontal elevation level. The results will be stored in load cases named #stage-name#label#c. | |
Not applicable |
Variant III - Generate an Excel file of the camber results
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Name of the label (* for all labels) for which the camber results should be output in the Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet. | |

Not applicable | |
Name of the Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet file, where the camber results will be stored |
Variant IV - Generate plot files of the camber results
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Name of the label for which the plot files should be generated | |
Not applicable | |
Name of the plot container and plot file where the camber results will be plotted The prepared plot file must contain displacements and the camber load cases (#stage-name#label#c) as result components. (Variables can be used to generate a series of plot files, i.e. the camber results of a certain label for all stages (e.g. #<stage>#end#c) where <stage> is an internal variable for the stage name). |
|
Output name of the plot file, where the camber results will be presented If a series of plot file is generated, a variable must be used to adjust the particular output names (e.g. camb_end_<stage>.pl). For details on plotting with variables see Action > DoPlot . |
