Show Span Information
| ArcFM Desktop Overview > Designer > Structural Analysis > Show Span Information |
The Show Span Info button is located in the Conductors frame. Click this button to display information about the spans listed in the Conductors table.
Every row in the grid shows the tension and wind forces between the reference span (Span 1 in the example above) and other spans. The lower portion of the dialog shows the total tension and wind along the final tension vector. Since this wind along the final tension vector is not necessarily the worst wind, the application also computes the wind for every angle from 0 to 360 degrees in 1-degree increments. It then displays the worst wind and its angle. The final resisting angle is the angle at which the guy should be installed. It is given in the clockwise direction from the reference span.
The user can change the reference angle between spans. The resultant loads are automatically recalculated and displayed in dialog, as well as on the transverse pole strength tab.
