How to get max result from each element of a specific group

[peppast]

Hello, everyone

I am working on my dissertation on Sap2000 v14.0 advanced. I have a truss of a railway bridge and i have some questions.

1)When I am clicking in "show tables" how can i get only the maximum for example bending moment from each element?

2)How can i get the result from a specific group of elements only?

3)Is it easy to construct a train? The analysis will be static, but I have several different positions of the train and it will take alot of time to do it by hand.


Thanks in advance

Hi peppast

1) After showing tables export it to access or excel and then filter the data.
2) Select the group before showing tables.
3) Define a general vehicle load and use an influence line.

Thanks for the fast reply.

1)The thing is that I need only the maximum bending moment from each member , neglecting in which part of the member it happens.I can do it from sap?

2)When i am selecting a group it coloured it in the "3-d view" but then in the "show tables" , the button "selection only" cant be marked.
