Basic Design

Improved Section Modulus

Description
The Section Modulus function has been improved in the following ways:

Individual items are presented in a dialogue, allowing the user to add individual factors
on each item.

Changed factors are stored with the view (in the drawing) and applied the next time a
calculation is made.

The neutral line and the summary of the calculations are presented in the drawing. The
presented information can be shown or hidden using the function:
Planar > View > Properties.

The results are presented in a CSV file accessible via the Job Launcher. Use the rightbutton (SendTo) to display or print the result file.

Benefits

Verify Model

Description
The function Verify Model investigates a model and reports in a log file potential problems
related to the topological dependencies.
The function should be executed prior to operations like Block Splitting and any reported
problems shall be corrected.
The function is available from the Project menu in Basic Design

Benefits
The function simplifies the maintenance of a correct model.

Compatibility Constraints
None.
