Prospective customer is generating a cut. In old Eiffel software (he was an advanced user) he could get the resultant and a report (attached a couple of screen with the two outputs of Eifel.
I don´t find these two options in Advance Design, but I understand they must present somewhere.
Could you please let me know where you can get these results?

The way of accessing the section cut results in Advance Designis similar as in Effel software.

All he has to do is to select the section cut and to use thededicated button “Result curves” from “Analysis – F.E. results” toolbar.

Note: Another easiest way is to select the section cut andto choose, from right-click, the option “Result curves” (see the picture “sectioncut 1.png”).

In the “Result curves” window he will have to configure theresults options (choose the desired results, the desired load combinations). Theresult curve can be opened by double clicking on its diagram.

As in Effel software, he can get the resultants for each loadcase/load combination (see the picture “section cut 2.png”) and also a tablewith eccentricities, resultants and moments available for selected loadcases/load combinations (see the picture “section cut 3.png”).

Please reply if you need further assistance.

Best regards.

Victor that was a question on the 10th of April 2013 and I have sent a totally diferent question now regarding local vs global coordinates display.

Regarding the subject: “A customer is finding inconsistencies between local axis and presentation of forces. Attached is a pdf with some of the problems encountered. Basically the problem is that when selecting local axis presentation it looks like some properties are still in global axis presented.”First of all, please tell me on what version of Advance Design is the customer working, as some of these situations you have described have been improved / fixed. Also, please send the model on which these problems have been found.Regarding the points which treat issues for supports, there are two ways of defining them: the stiffeners can be defined in relation to the global system or by the linear support local axes.The definition by the local axis is relevant only for the elastic point supports or elastic linear supports. For the rigid supports, this definition has been removed, as it was considered redundant for a fixed support in all directions (infinite rigidity in all directions). Of course, on an inclined column, it is not the same to consider a fixed support Tx in the local axis of the column and a component TX in the global axe, but for these cases there is a simple workaround: the user can create an elastic support and define big stiffness values in the local axes of an element; these settings should make the elastic support behave as a rigid one.As a consequence to this implementation, all results and values calculated for rigid supports are displayed in relation to the global system.As for the elastic supports:1. The elastic point support: the definition of this type of support can be made according to global axes or according to the local axes of a reference element. In the post-processing stage, the user can display results according to the global axes or according to the local axes of the reference element. 2. The elastic linear support: the definition of this type of support can be made according to global axes or according to the local axes of a reference element. In the post-processing stage, the user can display results according to the global axes or according to the local axes of the elastic linear support.
