@Simau ,I cannot open the excel(for wahtever reason).Please see attached model file.

Can you possibly run the API and send me the result in excel file for node 3(resultant force).

Thank you in advanced.

Hi @saclovitzky ,

Hope you are doing good! I wanted to follow up and see if you had a chance to look into the Simau's post. Please let us know if you still need any assistance on this.

hi @saclovitzky

I hadn't seen your message, and other replies have come in since then.

I had an Excel tool for doing this as well; mine provides the cumulative member forces, in absolute values, relative to another member's coordinate system.

I'll let you take a look at it, hope it helps.

Best Regards
