Horizontal shear transfer from slab to walls/bracing

[bjornhgr]

I'm trying to display the shear force transferred from my floors to bracing and walls. Panel cuts gives an integral value and a pretty diagram, but defining each cut is a painstakingly slow process when there are several floors of irregular geometry. Is there a better way of doing this?

Try to look at the reduced results for panels table.

Nice! Thanks!

Next, I'm trying to determine the forces that actually transfers to the bracing. Is there a way to "cut" through bars, similar to panel cuts, to get, for example, the sum of forces in a given direction in the bars?

You can get the values for the global X and Y directions for all bars (named as columns) in the stories results table.
