During the Bridge project development and for knowing what the most unfavorable load cases envelope is, for a certain result component, in one final superposition file, “TrackSup” schedule action shall be used.
This action generates one list/excel output file with all various and original sources of load cases and/or superposition files that contribute to the final tracking result component, as well as summation load cases results generated in the load management table. It is possible to track forces and displacements results.
User can either run this action during the different construction stages and when summation load cases are not yet completed and finalized.
Input values can be given by element series, or by RM Sets definition.
The output file contains the final result along with the factorized results, for each original load case and/or superposition file. The corresponding load factors used in each load case and/or superposition file are also presented.
A schedule can have as many "TrackSup" actions as desired and they can be positioned inside a schedule action at any stage.
Live loads are also tracked by presenting the influence line and load train numbers that were considered during the calculation, as well as the participated directions for seismic analysis, that contributed for the most unfavorable envelope result.
