Listing Connector Output Forces

For spring, spot weld, and link connectors, you can list the output forces after you run a static or nonlinear analysis.

Right-click Results and click List Connector Force.

The List Pin/Bearing Force option is removed. Listing of output forces for all connectors is available from the Result Force/Connector force PropertyManager.

You can list the results for all connectors in the current study, or filter the results for selected connectors only. Available selections are:

  • All connectors
  • All pins
  • All bolts
  • All springs
  • All spot welds
  • All links
  • All bearings
  • Individual connectors

When you select a row in the table, the corresponding connector highlights in the graphics area and a callout lists all forces.

To export all connectors' forces to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, click Save to file pm_save_to_file.gif.
