Is there a way within LEAP Bridge Steel to report analysis results for load combinations (Strength I, Service II, DC only results, etc.)? I have found where results are broken up into their service components under analysis reports, but I can't find a way to report similar tables for combined loads. The only way to get the combinations I'm looking for is to post process using an Excel spreadsheet which also involves cutting and pasting to align the tables in rows vs. columns (for summing force values at each POI, LBS exports table data vertically in Excel).
Two examples: I can't generate a report for Strength I factored girder reactions. Also, I can't generate a report to find the inflection point due to DC only loads. Having to create a spreadsheet to sum up load effects due to steel self weight, steel connection plate weight, steel cross frame weight, deck weight, etc., is extremely cumbersome. Am I just missing something here?
Many thanks for your help!
I have found similar issues with their reporting. They break down the info into many small pieces which is great, but then there is no easy way to get the summation of those parts without doing what you are doing now.
Also, be careful with the default load combos... they are missing Strength III & Construction load combos for the construction (deck pour) phase, and also missing Strength III, Strength V, & Service I from the "in service" phase. You will have to add those load combos in manually.
I've brought both of the above to development a while back so hopefully we see some enhancements in the near future

Thanks Steven. I'm new to LBS (longtime MDX user) and still getting my feet wet with my first project. Let's hope this enhancement is on the forefront with the development team - seems like it would be a pretty straight forward routine to create and would save a lot of design time.
