List of Variables of Dimensioning
To perform dimensioning analysis it is first necessary to choose the option "Carry out dimensioning" in the frame "Dimensioning parameters". Visualization of values for dimensioning can be set in the toolbar "Results". Notation of variables (particularly indexes of variables) changes according to the standards used for dimensioning of concrete and steel structures set in the "Material and standards" tab.
