User can now manually
override the automatic Design Forces and use values from another analysis. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Program will then use
these values with either manual H or automatic H and then display the
reinforcement. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
User can now also
override the automatic reinforcement values. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The blue Automatic
values are replaced with the manual values and the heading is changed from
Auto to Used. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The blue Used values
display can also be swiched off to display the green manual values only for
clarity. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The links to the
automatic eTank values are not lost as they are kept off the visible sheet. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These options must be
used with care as changing them will mean the design is no longer self
validated via eTank. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
This enables the program
to act as a quantities calculator for designs undertaken separately from
eTank. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Resetting Forces and /
or Reinforcement back to Auto will restore the automatic eTank design. |
