Question

Is it possible to display the corresponding internal forces for a maximum or minimum internal force when using a result combination as an envelope for surface internal forces?


Answer:

For members, the corresponding internal forces are shown in addition to the maximum and minimum values in a result combination. Due to the large amount of data, only the maximum and minimum values for each grid point are shown for surface internal forces. The corresponding internal forces for the maximum or minimum value are not displayed.

Therefore, RFEM calculates all load cases, load combinations, and result combinations contained in the result combination for the results evaluation, and lists the maximum and minimum values accordingly. If you want to have the corresponding internal forces for the result value of the result combination, it is necessary to search for the elements contained in the result combination and compare them to the corresponding value.

If the load case or load combination is found, the corresponding internal forces are also displayed for each grid point of the surface.

For faster evaluation, you can also use the COM interface.
