Force & Stress Table

Check the internal forces and stresses of truss elements from the analysis results in a spreadsheet format table.

Table Tool in midas Civil offers a variety of powerful built-in functions. Refer to Usage of Table Tool for detail directions:

From the Main Menu select Results > Result Tables > Truss > Force & Stress

From the Main Menu select Results > Result Tables > Truss > Force

From the Main Menu select Results > Result Tables > Truss > Stress

Refer to "Truss Forces", "Truss Stresses")

Upon executing the Truss > Force & Stress Table function, Records Activation Dialog prompts. Click after selecting the output entities such as nodes or elements, loading conditions, construction stages, etc.

Note
Refer to Results Table of "Usage of Table Tool" for the usage of Records Activation Dialog.
 

Refer to Usage of Table Tool and check the following data:

When truss forces are checked, select Current Step Result to produce member forces at the current stage only.

Elem: Element number

Load: Load case/combination

Stage: Construction stage

Step: Sub-stage

Force - I: Axial force at node i (N1) of the truss element

Force - J: Axial force at node j (N2) of the truss element

Stress - I: Axial stress at node i (N1) of the truss element

Stress - J: Axial stress at node j (N2) of the truss element

Note
The output for Stage and Step will be shown in the result table only for the construction stage analysis of a bridge or heat of hydration stage analysis. Results for Step are also produced for geometric nonlinear analysis.
