MINIMUM ACTION CHECK

(Minima are based on section capacity, not member capacity.)
Specified minimum design actions:
Bending 50% of íMs ( 275.2) = 137.6 kN.m
Shear 0% of íVs ( 356.4) = 0.0 kN
40.0 kN
Tension 0% of íNs ( 2408.2) = 0.0 kN
Compression 0% of íNc ( 2408.2) = 0.0 kN
NOTE: Input design actions are not automatically increased if they are less than
the specified minimum actions. Minimum actions may be set in any load case.
This check warns if any design action is less than the specified minimum
for all load cases.
