  1. Missing Concentrated Live Loads in Load Drawing (Bug 3403)

    Starting with version 11.1, concentrated loads no longer appeared in the load diagram. In drawing the other loads, they were adjusted to accommodate the greater magnitude of the concentrated load, however.

    This has been corrected.

  2. Critical Shear Diagram for 90-degree Oblique Angle (Bug 3410)

    For beams loaded at an oblique angle of 90 degrees, in the Analysis Diagram, for Critical Results, the shear diagram was blank and did not show a shear graph. The 90-degree graphs appear for other load combinations, the critical results appear for all other angles. The critical results now appear for 90 degrees.

  3. Bottom Lateral Supports for Multi-Span Beams. (Change 62)

    The first bottom lateral support symbol was not being drawn for interior spans of multi-span members. This symbol now appears.

  4. Lateral Support at Supports (Change 2c)

    In the Beam view drawing, when there is no lateral support other than at end supports, the program did not show the lateral support symbols at supports, even though lateral support was shown at the support when there was also intermediate support. This has been corrected.

  5. Load Envelope for Joist and Wall Area Loads (Bug 3320)

    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.

  6. Analysis Diagram Improvements (Change 9)

    The following improvements were made in Analysis diagrams.

    Decimal points were lined up where multiple design values were shown.

    Spaces were introduced before reactions +Rmax and -Rmax to match the formatting of other labels

    Load combination numbers are now shown for critical reactions.

  7. Unit Label in Column Drawing (Change 10)

    In the drawing of negatively side-loaded columns, the unit label (kN/m or plf) for applied load was overwritten over the left end of the scale line near 0. Sizer now clearly prints it to the right of the negative scale line.

  8. Lateral Supports for Long Beams in Drawing (Change 63)

    For beams longer than 30 feet, lateral support symbols were drawn past the end of the beam. This has been corrected.
