Hello everyone

I am doing the analysis of Turnbuckle as a part of my college project. I want to apply load and moment both in the model and want to visualize their cumulative effect, i.e., in single loadstep I want both load and moment to be present, so how can we do it?

Any help would be appreciated

    you just need to create both force and moment into the same loadcollector and use it into your loadstep. both wll be applied simultaniously.

    You can also use a LOADADD card to include loads from different collectors.  Then just reference the LOADADD card in the load field of the load step.
