Output results in rpt.file

Dear all,
In the past an outputfile has been created for the stress tensor.
This outputfile is an rpt.file
Added I have a picture of these results.
I would like to know how to create these kind of files.
I guess it should be somewhere in Results --> create --> report
In the releaseguide I also do not find it.
 
Thanks in advance.

  • Ron, think back to your statics course. Each bar load is like force in a freebody diagram. (it helps to draw a picture).
    Are the elements connected end-to-end? In other words, the 2 or 4 elements form a line (connecting node 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5)? If so, the axial force will be the same in each element (assuming no intermediate axial loads are applied).
    However, if they are connected in parallel (2 elements from node 1-2), then you have to add the forces together.
