Problem Description

There is an error in plotting of the axial force diagram (FX) for TRUSS members. Wedges are formed at the ends instead of a uniform plot. The values are correctly computed in the analysis..

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open example 1. (X:\SProV8i SS6\STAAD\Examp\us\examp01.std)
  2. Run the analysis. Go to post processing - Beam - Forces page.
  3. Select member 20 which is a truss member and display just that member in the view
  4. Switch on the axial force diagram.

Instead of the plot being a constant value along the length of the member, it is shown as two wedges at each end.
The same error also exists in the plot of FX in the Beam-Graphs page.
