Answer:
Yes, it is. This requires the activation of the elastic foundation in the "Edit Nodal Support" dialog box. On the basis of some input parameters, such as support type, column shape, material, and column height, the program determines the springs of the column (see Image 01).In addition to the elastic support, another advantage is that the surface area of the column cross-section is deactivated when displaying the results. Therefore, singularities are hidden; thus, the concrete design applies design cross‑sections.
