Generating and modifying the model
- New types of loads have been added:
- Warping at nodes accounts for the inadequacy of the cross-sectional plane of a bar; it is important when for analysis of the thin-walled structures.
- Bimoment at nodes takes into account the moment arising from a force distributed along the height of the cross-section.
- Bimoment by line is mentioned to model a distributed bimoment along an element of the structure.
- Dynamic modules have been added: (22) Impact, (23) Impulse, and (50) Earthquake (AzDTN 2.3-1-2010, modif. on Jan 01, 2014).
- In the "Parameters for load case" dialog box, the "Scale for presentation of loads" parameter has been added for the selected load. So, it is possible to change the scale of concentrated, linear loads and surface loads, ensuring a more illustrative visualization.
Scale for presentation of loads
- Location of the colour palette for visualization of analysis results can be customized (in the LIRA-CAD meshed model), including for the visualization of analysis results in the "RC expert" module.
Customizing location of the colour palette for analysis results
- An option for loads on the staircase has been implemented: to indicate whether the load is included in the additional load case during assemblage.
