Steel Connection-Forces and Moment Values

[anaszok12]

Hi all,

I designed a simple portal frame in Revit, analyzed in Robot and transferred back the results.

Then, I modeled the connections. However, when I tried to code check the values for

force and moment are zero despite the results from Robot were transferred correctly. Is there any step that I missed?

Please refer to the picture and project file for reference (ignore the fail status- I will look into that later)

Cheers,

Anas

Hi,

You have to select the "Use load combinations" option. You can then open a small dialog by pressing the Force button.

In that dialog you will see all (N,T,M) values from the Load Combinations defined in Revit (Load Cases will not be displayed). You can add additional User Cases. The dialog will also display the values that are defined on the Member Forces dialog, on the Analytical Beam/Column. 

Hope this helped,
