Obtain internal forces of beams

Hello,

I am wondering how to obtain the numerical values for the internal forces. With the component ‘BeamView’ it is possible to visualize them but I’l wondering of there is a way to obtain their values in a list or some sort?

Thank you!
Eva

Hi, you can use the Beam Forces component - 3.6.9: Beam Forces - Karamba3D 1.3.3

That’s it, thank you! And is there maybe also a way to get the max/min/average? Or to export the data into text/excel?

Thanks!

There are many components and plugins to caculate max/min (sort list and getting the first item or last item), average component, or with other plugins. You can use external plugins to export to excel.
