In members -> Connectivity and description tab -> Tributary width: What plan plan does this define the tributary width for?
When defining a tributary width and pressure loads it seems that the tributary width only works correctly for a pressure applied in the Y-direction. Is this correct or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Ryan
edit = "What plan plan does..." should be "What plan direction does...."
Click F1 on that spreadsheet to get help about the Tributary Width. It is limited to vertical pressures. It works with any load case where Member Loads - Pressures are used.

Not sure how I missed the F1 explanation, thought I had checked that. Thanks though!
