Karamba forces in points

Hey guys,

i have a question about the results from karamba. I created a design for a curved folding gesodestic dome and and would like to analyze the forces in the weak points of design.

I have seperates the weak points and have the forces (wind forces) in these points. I also have the minimum and maximum forces in these points. Now i would like to find out in which point the minimum/ maximum force occurs.

Anybody got an idea how I can find out?

Thank you very much,
Kind regards
Jil

Hello @jil_schneider,
you could us a ‘Shell Forces’-component to find the minimum and maximum cross section forces.

Hi Jil, I am also working on a geometry with curved folding, I am struggling with the integration of karamba for the structural analysis and optimisation since it is the first time I am using it. Would you mind sharing your gh. file? Thanks a lot!
