RESULTS CALCULATE BEAMST Set_name

  This command spawns as a sub-process the WS Atkins program Beam Stress.

Either the name of a set may be specified, in which case the elements in the set will be procesed by Beam Stress, or the keyword ALL may be given in which case all the elements in the model will be processed by Beam Stress.

On workstations the Beam Stress program is run as a sub-process and the user can continue to work with FEMVIEW while Beam Stress is executing. When Beam Sress has completed it will automatically transfer new results data back to FEMVIEW..

On PC's execution of FEMVIEW is suspended until Beam Stress has finished.

Further details on the Beam Stress program are available from WS Atkins Ltd.
