Monitoring Points

[Bogdan RADU]

Hello,

During analysis several elements "fail" cod based checks (but only for 0,03s if you plot the performance ratio), in this case a strain plot for materials in the elements would be useful for taking the decision if the member failed (eg. confined concrete / reinforcement in the pseudocolumns).
How can I introduce "monitoring points" in a reinforcement bar of a specific element and a in the confined concrete in order to be able to plot strain diagrams vs time (for time history analysis).

Thank you,

Dear Bogdan RADU,

Are you referring to the stress-strain points available in the Analysis Output tab of the Pre-Processor?
