Beam End Rotations

I am currently back analysing concrete beams. Currently the issue on site is that the concrete is spalling at the beam ends due to rotation of the beam ends causing clashing with the next beam which is due to their deflected shape. Is there a way generate the angle of rotation through the software outputs?

 

Help with this would be grately appreciated.

 

Many Thanks

Either check Displacement table or this :

or I misunderstood what you want to get.

Thanks for the quick reply, however this wasnt what I meant.

 

I have attached a sketch to clarify my question. I am effectivly looking to resolve 'theta' B in the sketch using your software.

 

Thanks.

@Burgon87

Some workaround - if you need values of rotations only in some specific points along the length of beam you can define nodes there and re-run analysis.

Rotations will be available in the table of displacements:
