Load cases unavailable for results review

Dear Technical Support:

I defined 4 load cases:

• PIER_SW: self-weight from the pier column, Element load group: LD1P_SW

• Girder_SW: girder self-weight, including frame element loads, and wet-concrete which is removed once the segmental component is added as a structural entity with its own element dead load.

  + Element load:         Load groups LD1G_SW0 - 12

  + Wet concrete load: Load groups SW1G_0 - 11

• PS: prestress loads. Will be added gradually according to the advance of the segment erection, Load groups: PS_P1_0 - 11

• FT: load from the form traveler, Load groups FT_P1_0 - 11

I defined one construction sequence that erects one half of the bridge: one half structure associated with one pier.

After I ran the data file, I could not find any of the above load cases for result review.

How I can review the results (reactions, deflections and member forces) for the above load case? 

Or I have to define a few load combinations for the loads involved in the above construction sequence? The structure is analyzed with nonlinear analysis even if I configured the construction sequence is performed with linear analysis as mentioned in yesterday's reply to my question; as such superposition could not be applied and the results could not be identified for individual load cases because of the compression-only point spring support.

When I defined one load combination ConstructStage, I can find this load combination, but the construction stage/step are lost. I only have the final results. What is wrong with my data file.

I attached my data file.

Regards,

A:  All the loads (except prestress) that are activated in construction stage get clubbed into Dead Load (CS) case.  To view the result of each case individually, these loads need to be separated from the Dead Load (CS) case.  This can be done using the construction stage analysis control.
