Question:
I would like to check the internal forces on a member. Can I display the axis system, and what do the internal forces refer to?
Answer:
You can activate the display of the local axis system of members either by right-clicking a member in the member shortcut menu or in Project Navigator - Display.
Member internal forces are displayed with regard to the member axes or the principal axes (FAQ 003291).
You can also find the definition of member internal forces in the online manual.
