This function will enable the users to draw resultant force diagram along the member and generate a table, for the resultant forces (Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz) at several section-cut planes defined along the member. The section-cut plane defined using Section for Resultant Forces option can consist of plate/plane stress elements and/or beam/truss elements. |
