Hey all,
I'm modeling a slab on walls and I'm wondering if there is a way I can pull reactions from the supports that I've added (my piles) below my walls. When I go to turn on reactions, it seems that SAFE is giving a reaction at each point of the wall mesh, and not just at the supports that I have drawn. Do I have to draw this as a deep beam element to get the reactions, or is there a way to force SAFE to only report reactions at the boundary conditions that I have supplied.
What I have tried doing is setting wall meshes to 1m2 to get a line load, but this doesn't handle my point loads very well since it is throwing them into a pretty large tributary width of wall UDL.
