Area Properties...

The thickness and material properties of a concrete member are assigned here.


General Properties...

The strength reduction factors of strut, tie, and node are assigned here. The sectional and material properties of reinforcing bars and concrete are also assigned.



Load Combinations...

The load combinations that must be considered in the strut-tie model design are defined here. More load combinations can be added.

Although the number of load combinations can be changed in the DEFINE-Project Information, it can also be changed here by adding or deleting the combinations.

Caution is needed because the information on the finite element models related to a certain load combination is removed when the load combination is deleted.
