Analysis

This part shows the results of structural analysis for the member and specified time of fire resistance. The results are displayed with the help of utilization diagram in the workspace. Passed member is coloured by green colour. The parts where the utilization exceeds 100% are coloured by red colour.

Utilization of the member, red parts failed

The frame in the bottom part contains tools for changing the analysis method and for the work with analysis sections (positions with detailed results).

Analysis method

The fire resistance method and the analysis method may be selected in the upper part of the input frame. There are two methods for the analysis of fire resistance according to the annex B of EN 1992-1-2: "500° isotherm method" and "Zone method". Both methods are described in the part "Methods for fire resistance analysis" of the theoretical help.

Analysis method can be selected in the upper part of the input frame. The analysis style and considered loads are selected according to the certain applied method. These options are available:

The analysis have to be run by the button "Analyse" after the change of the analysis method.

Verification sections

Verification sections are used for display of detailed results in certain points along the member length. These verification sections can be converted into standalone "Section" tasks, the results can be printed using graphical outputs. The verification section is created automatically in the position with the worst utilization, other sections can be added manually.

These tools are available for the work with sections:

The new section for analysis can be also added using active workspace. New section can be added by double-click on the needed position on the member.
