Beam Detail

Displays detailed results (diagrams, tables) for the selected beams of a structure.

Access:

Ribbon: Frame Analysis tab Result panel Beam Detail
Select Beam First, select a beam for which you want to present a detailed analysis. The selected diagrams are shown in the beam coordinate system.
Diagram Selection Select the particular force, moment, or stress to be presented in the Diagram area.
Diagram Displays the selected quantities as diagram.
Results Displays numerical calculation results presented for selected beam.
