Linear loads

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Is there a way to display a mesh indepedent linear load (kN/m) acting at the bottom and/or top of (f.ex) walls in Robot? I.e. from adjacent slabs etc. If the walls is simply supported, is there a way to display which load that acts on the wall for a manual control?

And in the case shown in the picture attached, which what is the maximum linear load (kN/m) at the bottom/top of the wall?

Thanks

I guess you are asking about linear reactions instead of linear loads.
Linear reactions can be displayed through Results/diagrams on bars , Reactions tab. Choose average or integral value to be displayed

Thanks. But if you have a simply supported wall, is there a way to display the linear load acting at the top of the wall? Almost like the "forces generated automatically" for bars?

No, there isn't.

Thank you. These results is mesh dependent? What is the correlation between the mesh and the results?

[Artur.Kosakowski]

Yes, it is as any other type of results for panels.
