Introduction
XTRACT
Extract Displacements and Stresses from an ASAS Database
1.
Printing of Selected Displacements/Reactions and Stresses
1.1. Introduction
The XTRACT program is a post-processor for the ASAS suite, which enables the analyst to select for printing
specific results either displacements or stresses, for specific nodes and elements, or a load balance for specific
sections. The analyst may also select the loadcases for which the results are to be printed.
This selective printing allows results for the critical points in an analysis to be printed out for inclusion in
reports, or for examination where the printing was turned off in the previous run.
Additional options exist for specialist manipulation, e.g. the printing of displacements for beam elements in the
local axis system of an element, printing reactions instead of displacements, printing reactions as point loads.
The program may also be used to print out displacements, reactions and stresses to a high degree of accuracy, i.e.
up to 13 significant figures.
1.2. Program Description

The XTRACT program operates on files saved from an ASAS, LOCO or RESPONSE analysis. These files are
saved by adding a SAVE LOCO FILES line to the preliminary data block. The files contain the displacements
and stresses, together with structural description.
The program is divided into three parts. The first reads the data, and stores it on a temporary file. The second
part checks the input data against information read back from the ASAS backing files. Error messages will be
generated if the user has attempted to process non-existent nodes, elements, or loadcases. If there are errors the
program will terminate at this stage. If no errors are detected XTRACT will read the required information from
the ASAS backing files, and then continue to the final section where the information is printed.

Data Formats
Data Formats
The XTRACT data is divided into two sections, the Preliminary Data and the main XTRACT Data.
Full details of the Preliminary Data are given in Appendix A of this manual. Details of the main XTRACT data
are given in the following sections.
2.1. General Principles

The input data for XTRACT are specified according to syntax diagrams similar to the one shown below. The
conventions adopted are described in the following paragraphs.
Each horizontal branch represents a possible input instruction. Input instructions consist of a keyword (shown in
upper case) followed by data (shown in lower case). XTRACT data are in the form of integer lists which is
indicated by the horizontal arrow around the data item.
integer
KEYWORD
Each item in the list is separated from each other by a comma or one or more blank spaces. To reduce the
amount of data required, a range of integers may be specified using the form i TO n, eg.
and
ELEM
1 4 6 TO 12 16 19 TO 22
ELEM
1 4 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 16 19 20 21 22
are equivalent
An input line must not be longer than 80 characters. Keywords may be specified in either upper or lower case
letters.
2.1.1.
Special Symbols
The following is a list of characters which have a special significance to the XTRACT data
An asterisk is used to define the beginning of a comment. Whatever follows on the line will not be
interpreted
* THIS IS A COMMENT LINE
A comma or blank will act as a delimiter between data items on a line

2.2. ELEM Command

The ELEM command defines those elements for which stresses are to be printed. If the LOCL option is used,
the displacements for these elements in the element local axis system will also be printed.
ELEM
elno
Parameters
ELEM
: keyword
elno
: list of user element numbers (Integers)
2.3. STRESS Command

The STRESS command defines which stresses are to be printed for the selected elements.
STRESS
snum
Parameters
STRESS
: keyword
snum
: list of stress numbers required (Integers). See Appendix D for the correspondence between
stress numbers and stress types.
Notes
Up to a maximum of 15 stress numbers may be entered.
2.4. NODE Command

The NODE command defines those nodes for which displacements are required. If the REAC option has been
used, reactions not displacements for the nodes will be printed.
NODE
node
Parameters
Page 2-2
XTRACT User Manual
NODE
: keyword
node
: list of node numbers (Integers)
Data Formats
2.5. CASE Command

The CASE command defines the user loadcases for which results are to be printed.
CASE
loadcase
Parameters
CASE
: keyword
loadcase
: list of loadcase numbers (Integers)
Note
If the CASE command is omitted, all loadcases will be printed.
2.6. NSIGF Command

The NSIGF command defines the number of significant figures to which the output will be printed, for NODE
or ELEM data.
NSIGF
nsig
Parameters
NSIGF
: keyword
nsig
: number of significant figures required (Integer)
Notes
1.
The default value is 4. The maximum value is 13.
2.
If the LOCL option is in use the NSIFG command changes the way in which the output is presented. If a
value of less than 4 is used, the results are printed in a tabular format in continuous columns across the
page. If a value greater or equal to 4 is used, the results are printed in report style, one element/case per
page.

2.7. SECT Command

The SECT command indicates the start of a new section defined by the following JOIN command.
SECT
sect
Parameters
SECT
: keyword
sect
: section ID number (Integer)
Note
SECT data cannot be given in the same run as NODE and/or ELEM data.
2.8. JOIN Command

The JOIN command defines the nodes to be included in a section for load balance calculations and the elements
to be considered at those nodes. If the LOCL option has been used, forces in local directions for each chosen
element at a joint will also be printed.
JOIN
node
elno
Parameters
JOIN
: keyword
node
: node number (Integer)
elno

2.10. The LOCL Option for the Transformation of Pile Displacements

When option LOCL is used with the ELEM command, XTRACT takes the displacements of selected beam
elements and transforms them into the local axis system of the element. The system used is defined as having
the local x axis from the node with the smallest z coordinate to the upper node. The y and z axes are defined by
the element type in the normal way. If one of the nodes has already been skewed then this will be taken into
account in calculating the new skew system. It is therefore possible for the nodes at each end of an element to
have different skew systems. All the skew systems are printed at the end of the data check. These skew systems
are used to transform the nodal displacements for each selected loadcase, which are then stored on a temporary
backing file prior to being printed. The selected stresses are extracted and stored in a similar manner.
There are two forms of output, the one selected depends on the number of significant figures to which the output
is required. If a low degree of accuracy is acceptable, the results are output in tabular form with displacements
and stresss output as one line per loadcase. If a higher degree of accuracy is desired a report form of output is
generated, which has column headings for each loadcase.

B.1
Files Required by XTRACT
XTRACT operates on the files produced by the preceding ASAS, RESPONSE or LOCO runs and hence these
must physically be present in the users disc space for the program to run successfully. In all cases the project
file must exist which contains information about all other files required for the current analysis. The name of
this file is derived from the four character Project Name defined on the PROJECT command. (For example, if
the Project Name is PRKZ, then the Project File will be PRKZ1O).
For each ASAS, RESPONSE or LOCO with a SAVE LOCO FILES line in its preliminary data, there will be a
physical file containing the stress and displacement information from that analysis. Again the physical file
names are derived from the four character name defined on the FILES command. Typically, if the name was
STVK, then the physical file would be STVK35. The information stored in the file will depend on the form of
the run producing the output. The stresses and displacements may relate to a single step analysis of a structure
or to the results associated with elements at any level in a substructured analysis. Provided that the user has the
requisite files on disc the program will handle them in a transparent manner.
