  • New modes for mosaic plots are implemented:

    • A group of mosaic plots to check and prepare documentation for the specified perfectly rigid bodies: mosaic plots for the number of instances for PRB that include a node (all slave nodes of the PRB should have a value 1 on the mosaic plot, master nodes of PRB should have values of 1, 2 or more); mosaic plots for the number of nodes in all PRBs that include a node; mosaic plot of PRB types.
    • A group of mosaic plots to check the loads applied to the model: mosaic plot for the number of identical loads applied to an individual node and/or element; mosaic plot for the number of loads applied to an individual node and/or element (the surface load is considered as one load); mosaic plot for loads with account of specified surface loads (uniformly distributed over the area) applied to the plates.

    • A group of mosaic plots for the percentage ratio of the reinforcement area of selected/specified longitudinal reinforcement along the X, Y and XY axis (total) to the cross-sectional area of the plate.

    • A group of mosaic plots for displaying and documenting the analysis results of reinforcement for bars with the type of reinforcement "Plastic wall" by SP RK EN 1998-1:2004/2012: mosaic plot for the product of confinement effectiveness factor and mechanical volumetric ratio of the confining reinforcement; mosaic plot for relative (normalized) axial force; mosaic plot for the length of boundary zone.
    • A group of mosaic plots for max and min thickness values of metal shapes.

    • Mosaic plots for elasticity moduli with account of defined coefficients E(E1)*kE, E2*kE , E3*kE.
    • Mosaic plot for groups of mass redistribution.
    • Mosaic plot for the max design compressive resistance of the soil along the Y1-axis.
    • Mosaic plot for the max design compressive resistance of the soil along the Z1-axis.
    • Mosaic plot for behaviour type of elastic foundation.
    • Mosaic plots/diagrams for lateral-torsional moments Tw.
    • Mosaic plots for plates with forces and stresses at nodes.
    • Mosaic plot for the elements for which the state of the sections will be analysed.

  • New tool to select iterative physically nonlinear elements in which the state of section should be computed in analysis. In the Time History Analysis, it is possible to define the integration steps at which the analysis results for section state will be displayed (mosaic plots for normal stress, relative strain in the main material and reinforcement for the certain plate or bar; tangential stress, relative shear strain, max stress, max relative strain in the main material for the certain plate).

  • For the problems with Time History Analysis, you could generate graphs for the bimoment Bw (this moment will be computed only for the FE type 7 in problems with the model type 6) and the lateral-torsional moment Tw.

  • In the window with the output data from Pushover Analysis (monotonic increasing of horizontal earthquake load with check of horizontal displacement), there is a new option to generate a normative graph of the elastic spectrum.
