Problem description

In PLAXIS 2D 2015.00, point loads are not visualized correctly in the results: in the Output program the load values and directions are not correctly shown for each point load in the model as well as in the Load information table when two or more point loads are defined.

Note that this is a visualization issue in the results in the Output program only: the calculation kernel calculates with the correct values. Also the preview of a phase shows the correct point loads.

Solution

This is now solved in PLAXIS 2D 2015.01

In 2D2015.00 there is no workaround available: the visualization of multiple point loads is wrong. In order to inspect point load values, the preview can be used to inspect the loads set for that phase.
