Additional Results

Select the Additional Results check box to display further information about the design checks performed. Currently, it is possible to display mode shapes.

Mode Shapes

If the internal eigenvalue solver for determining the critical moment Mcr or the critical load factor αcrit is used for the lateral-torsional buckling analysis, the corresponding mode shape is also available as a result. This can be activated in the Results navigator to be displayed in the graphic window.

Various options are available in the Results navigator, which are described briefly below.

By Selected Design Check

This option displays the mode shape for the design selected in the result table. The design always refers to a member or a member set, and thus the mode shape of this member is displayed for the load situation used in the specific design in the graphic window. This option is very useful to specifically check the results of certain design.

By Governing Design Check

This option displays the mode shape for the stability analysis relevant for all objects. In the graphic, several mode shapes are displayed at the same time, although they appear independently of each other, or may have arisen from different load situations. This option is particularly suitable in connection when using a Visibility to document the results, as only the mode shape of the visible objects is displayed.

By Individual CO

This option displays the mode shape for all objects under a certain load combination, even if this is not governing for the design. You can select the displayed load combination from the list of loads in the toolbar. This option is very useful to check the plausibility of the specified boundary conditions and nodal supports.
