Returns a reaction value at support.
RSA_SUPPORT_REACTION (Force type, Node no., Case no., Case component no.)
The RSA_SUPPORT_REACTION formula syntax has the following arguments:
Force type
The following types of forces are available:
- FX
reaction force FX
- FY
reaction force FY
- FZ
reaction force FZ
- MX
reaction moment MX
- MY
reaction moment MY
- MZ
reaction moment MZ
Note: If you type an argument in the formula manually, enclose the text in quotation marks. You can also select or type a cell address (for example A1) which the data will be loaded from.
Node no.
The following input methods are available:
- Text - type a text (any character string) and enclose it in quotation marks, for example: "ALL" - all nodes in the project or "1 2 3" - specified list of nodes
- Number - type an integer
- Cell address - select or type a cell address (for example A1) which the data will be loaded from
- Graphical selection - select this option in the dialog or type "@" Note: If nodes are selected graphically in Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional, then the program returns information for the first node selected.
Case no.
The following input methods are available:
- Text - type a text (any character string) and enclose it in quotation marks, for example: "ALL" - all cases in the project or "1 2 3" - specified list of cases
- Number - type an integer
- Cell address - select or type a cell address (for example A1) which the data will be loaded from
- Graphical selection - select this option in the dialog or type "@" Note: If cases are selected graphically in Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional, then the program returns information for the first case selected.
Case component no.
It is a number of the case included in a combination.
The following input methods are available:
- Number - type an integer
- Cell address - select or type a cell address (for example A1) which the data will be loaded from
- Graphical selection - select this option in the dialog or type "@" Note: If cases components are selected graphically in Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional, then the program returns information for the first case component selected.
