A structure made of I-profile trusses is supported on both ends by spring sliding supports and loaded by transversal forces. The self-weight is neglected in this example. Determine the deflection of the structure, the bending moment, the normal force in the given test points, and the horizontal deflection of the spring supports.

The design results of the add-ons can be optionally displayed in the tables by design situations. This allows you to evaluate the results in great detail.
In the combination wizard, you can create final result combinations using auxiliary combinations. In the case of models with many load cases (for example, moving loads for bridges), you can use this option to generate result combinations that are more transparent and thus easier to check.
In RFEM and RSTAB, you have the option to export several printout reports into a PDF file.
You can find this function in the Navigator – Data.
The "Results by Story" table of a building model shows the center of gravity for load cases and load combinations. In addition to the self-weight, the vertical loads of the respective load cases and load combinations are also taken into account.
You can also use the "Center of Gravity and Information About Selected Objects" dialog box to display the center of gravity, taking into account the selected loading.
