Define Tendon Group

 

 

 

Define (add, modify & delete) Tendon Group names to which specific tendons are later assigned. Tendons in a Tendon Group are related in terms of their locations and structural functionality.

 

Once Tendon Groups are defined, the coordinates, stresses and prestress losses of tendons can be checked by Tendon Groups. When defining Tendon Profile, select a previously defined Tendon Group.

 

 

 

From the Main Menu select Structure > Group > B/L/T > Define Tendon Group.
