This is especially significant on cantilevered members, where deflection criteria at the exterior cantilever may be different than deflection criteria on the interior - for instance, a roof member may carry a plaster soffit outside, and support a suspended ceiling inside.
Or the other way around, a short cantilever may support only roof outside, and support a vaulted hard-lid on the interior.
Really, it seems to me that all the ratios/deflections should be reported on a per-span basis, not just the global maximums. Perhaps this could be part of the “detailed” calculation view?
Hi @themathguy thanks again for your message. We only show the worst-case DCRs in the Summary section located at the top-right, but you can see this information per span in the other sections. Check out the video below with more details about it. Let me know if you have any other questions
I hadn’t noticed this before, thank you Lucas. While it would be nicer if the summary included this, the information is available, and now I know where to look for it.
