Utilization on beam panels | Beam

The result tables of the category Utilizations on Beam Panels | Beams contain the result data for the designs of the frame profiles and studs of beam panels with the respective utilizations.

Important

The table category is available if a Beam Panel is selected for the design and the check box for the design of Beams is activated in the Global Settings dialog.

The results of the beam panels and beams are sorted in the tabs according to the following criteria:

  • Loads (design situations, load combinations)
  • Member properties (materials, cross-sections)
  • Objects (beam panels, members, member locations x)

Beam Panel Surface No.

Each beam panel is assigned to a surface. The number of this surface is specified here.

Member No.

For each design criterion, the number of the generated member that has the greatest utilization is specified.

Tip

You can activate the numbers of the generated objects in the Navigator - Display with the option ModelBasic ObjectsSurfacesBeam Panels for visualization. Alternatively, use the Display beam panel button in the toolbar.

Beam Type

This describes the location of the member:

  • Horizontal member at the top edge (-y) or bottom edge (+y) of the slab (see Beam Panel | Beams)
  • Vertical member at the left edge (-x) or right edge (+x) of the slab (see Beam Panel | Beams)
  • Inner rib: Stud within the slab

Location x

The x-location in the member is specified for which the maximum utilization was determined. The following x-locations are relevant for the tabular output:

  • Start and end nodes
  • Intermediate member result points (if defined)
  • Member division according to Mesh Settings for members
  • Extreme values of internal forces

Stress Point No.

The design is carried out at so-called stress points of the cross-section. These locations are defined by the coordinates of the centroid distances. All standard cross-sections of the library are provided with stress points at the locations relevant for design.

Design Situation

This column specifies the numbers of the Design Situations for which the individual utilizations are available.

Load

The numbers of the load or result combinations are specified that are governing for the respective designs.

Design Criterion

In this column, the design conditions according to Standard are specified. The degree of the respective utilization is expressed by the length of the colored bar.

Design Type

Each design is designated by an identifier with a number. For example, the designs of the serviceability limit state carry the identifier 'SE'. The design type is explained in the Description column.

Design Formula

You can activate this column in the Result Table Manager. It specifies the equations of the standard according to which the designs are performed.

Description

Each design is explained by a short description with reference to the chapter in the standard.

Tip

You can display the Design Details for a particular utilization using the Design check details button or by double-clicking the line.

Filtering Results

The Utilizations on Members chapter describes how to filter the results by limit state and by utilization.
