Connection Assessment

The Connection Assessment Tool cycles through the connections and shows whether they pass or fail the factor of safety for the connection based on specified shear and tensile limit values, or whether they’re borderline. All connections in the tool are shown by default, colored by status.

Before using the Connection Assessment tool, you must first specify the shear stress and tensile stress limits of the bond and set the range for connections to be highlighted as borderline.

Using filters, you can narrow down the connections you want to view.
