Missing Total Displacement in Result Combinations

Why are no total displacements shown in the table for result combinations?


Answer:

Different results of member and nodal deformation for load cases and result combinations have the following reason:

For an LC, the total member displacement u is calculated from the single displacements ux, uy, and uz.

For the result combination, however, it is possible that the individual displacements ux, uy, and uz come from different load cases. Thus, the total displacement cannot be calculated correctly. The individual maximum deformations would have to be listed separately, with details of which load cases lead to those results, and which lead to the max and min values in each case.
