Important Note – These are descriptions to changes implemented in version 10 and may not reflect current program behaviour.
For short cantilever spans, the design span dimension values shown below the beam overlapped, rendering them unreadable. Now, for beams with end spans less than 1/10 the length of the beam, the rightmost dimension is offset downwards to be visible, and for left end spans, the "0" is not shown.
For joists and wall studs, the magnitudes of area loads shown in the Load Envelope drawing of the Analysis diagrams were incorrectly multiplied by a factor equal to the joist spacing in the unit system chosen, e.g. 400 for metric or 16 for imperial. This has been corrected.
In column load view, the program displayed b beside the loaded face of the member regardless of whether it is loaded on the b- face or d-face according the Load Face input in column view. This has been corrected and d is shown for d-face loading.
The number of decimal places shown on the beam drawing has been increased from one to two decimal places for inches and from two to three decimal places for feet, so that 1/4' appears as 0.25" rather than 0.3". For feet output, a value like 3.5" will appear as .292 rather than .29. This change has been applied to the drawings in both Beam view screen and in the Design Check output.
For the lines dimensioning columns, the text was not drawn in the middle of the dimension line, but was spaced away from the line. Now the text is drawn in the middle of the line.
In the Analysis diagram, the zero moment and zero shear locations were truncated to show whole numbers like 3 rather than 3.00 as is shown for all other points. This has been corrected
