Input
Element : Element ID
Part : The i- or j-end of the element, giving the Node ID at that end in square brackets [Node ID]
Section Type : Compact or noncompact
Rating Case : The relevant Load Combinations for Assessment. Assessment check is performed for 12 sets of concurrent forces for each load combination.
q : The longitudinal shear per unit length.
Pim : The nominal initial mean static strength.
Pa : The assessed static strength.
qr : The longitudinal shear resistance.
q/qr : The ratio of shear flow to longitudinal shear resistance.
q/qr_limit : The maximum value of the ratio of shear flow to longitudinal shear resistance.
Check : An overall indication whether the section passed all checks and is OK or Not Good (NG)
