I give -20 kN/m (point load) on my shallow foundation but when i calculate it. there is no any Fy apllied to my project
ps. I activate oint load already
Thank you
Hello Rachata,FY is the resulting reaction on the nodes when a prescribed displacement is applied.You may refer to an article (introduction) in the link here to know when a force load is used, how much a load step is applied per step via SMstage: communities.bentley.com/.../how-to-get-a-load---displacement-curve-using-scripting-interface
Thank you Hung
Can I ask more question? If in the field I start give load at 2kN/m2 and add 2kN/m2 every hour until reach 20kN/m2.
what should i set up in staged construction
Hello again, Rachata,You may define multiple phases with an increment of the load in each phase = 2 kN/m2, e.g., Phase_1: 2 kN/m2, Phase_2: 4 kN/m2, etc.
