Results

Choose what to show with Results for on the Results tab: a combination, the envelope of all combinations, a P-Δ run, or one load case (solved on demand, unfactored).

In the 3D view

  • Deformed shape with a scale slider (automatic scale × factor). Members are drawn as curves from the end displacements and rotations.
  • Diagrams N, Vy, Vz, T, My, Mz along every member, with a scale slider; for the envelope the maximum and minimum are drawn.
  • Reactions as arrows with values.
  • Mode shapes (modal and buckling) with an animation player and a mode picker.
  • Plate contours of the displacements.
  • Utilization colours from the design: green up to the first band (0.90), amber up to 1.00, red above, grey not designed. The bands are in Design ▸ Setup and Settings.
  • Server shaded view: shaded members with the chosen diagram, rendered by the engine.

Hovering a member shows its id, section and, with design results, its ratio.

Tables

The bottom panel has result grids for displacements, reactions (with totals and the residual), member end forces, the envelope (max / min with the governing combination), modal participation and buckling factors, plus the Design table. Copy rows with Ctrl+C or download CSV.

Signs

Member end forces are in member local axes: N (tension +), Vy, Vz, T, My, Mz. On a horizontal beam a sagging moment is a negative Mz (a positive Mz puts the +y, upper, fibre in tension). Reactions are the forces the supports exert on the structure; a gravity load gives a positive Fz. See Units and sign conventions.
