Hi @Anonymous

The later.  assuming that you design according to Eurocode you need to use the ULS (with load factors) combination type.

What about with India codes?

Also for connection design is there is any option to see forces given for connection design are correctly applied or not as the calculation report generated do not show this. Is there is any option to see free body diagrams which shows force distribution and directions etc

Hi @Anonymous

The Indian codes is not supported in the steel connection module.  Could you attach a sample of the report as you would like to see it?

Hi @Anonymous

After calculating the connection press the indicated button. Then you can add this dialog to the report as the screen capture if required.
