Results of code checking and member selection are presented in a tabular format. The term CRITICAL COND refers to the section of the SANS10162-1:1993 specification, which governed the design.

If the TRACK parameter is set to 1.0, the output will be displayed as follows:

Factored member resistances will be printed out. Following is a description of some of the items printed out.

Further details can be obtained by setting TRACK to 2.0. A typical output of track 2.0 parameter is as follows.
