Hello everyone,

 

I want to describe a moment for my project. Can you explain me? I described forces and I have to describe a moment but if I add a new load collector, I won't describe a new load step because of static load step gives permission us only a force. I shared a photo of the case study. 

 

Thank you so much.

    you can do it just like any other loadstep that you have created.

     

    Loadstep 1

    SPC =1

    LOAD = your_Vertical_force_load_collector

     

    Loadstep 2

    SPC =1

    LOAD = your_Horizontal_force_load_collector

     

    Loadstep 3

    SPC =1

    LOAD = your_inclined_force_load_collector

     

    Loadstep 4

    SPC =1

    LOAD = your_Moment_load_collector

     

    You can create the 'moment' in the 'Moment' panel. Hit "ctrl+F" and type moment. You can select a node and define the value.

    If this is a separate load, you neeed a separate load collector for it.

    If you want to combine all of them, you can combine them by using a load collector of type 'LOADADD'.
