Stress Contour dialog box
Load Combinations: Select a desired load combination. Value Sig max: Maximum stress and the position from the origin point Sig min: Minimum stress and the position from the origin point
Material Type Concrete Stressr: Display the concrete stress contour. Mesh: display the mesh shape of the concrete section. Steel Stressr: Display the steel stress contour. Mesh: Display the mesh shape of the steel section Rebar Stress: Display the reinforcement stress contour. Value Option Max/Min: Display the maximum and minimum stress value in the stress contour. Neutral Axis: Display the neutral axis at the ultimate strength. The ultimate strength is determined based on the same eccentricity ratio as the specified load combination (P, My, and Mz) in 3D P-M interaction curve. Components Combined: Axial stress + Bending stresses due to P, My, and Mz P: Axial stress due to the axial force (P) My: Bending stress due to the moment about the local y-axis (My) Mz: Bending stress due to the moment about the local z-axis (Mz) Value Format Exponential: Express the stress values in the legend as exponential expression. Fixed: Express the stress values in the legend as fixed expression. Decimal Point: Assign decimal points for the displayed numbers.
