Class 3 Error Reports – CivilFEM Apps for Ansys Workbench

The CivilFEM error classification system consists of three classes. Class 1 errors are those that do not affect the software functionality (such as text issues or minor bugs). Class 2 errors are those that prevent the correct use of the program (crashes, unhandled exceptions, non-functional buttons, or other similar issues). Class 3 errors are those where the program appears to work correctly but returns incorrect calculation results that could go unnoticed. Therefore, Class 3 errors are reported and their fixes are published to help users track and verify them when using CivilFEM in real engineering cases.

📄ACT2025001_CFW-100.pdf	Description of Error: The external axial force in the Y direction is incorrectly obtained when the shell interaction diagram is plotted using the forces and moments from the result file. Suggested User Action For Running on Uncorrected Version: Evaluate the forces and moments in the model for the Y direction and use these values to plot the interaction diagram with user force and moment.

📄ACT2023001_CFW-42.pdf	Description of Error: Error while applying effective length factor for EC3 buckling check. Values introduced by the user for XY and XZ plane are swapped. Suggested User Action For Running on Uncorrected Version: If different coefficients are needed in each plane, take into account the error and swap the input values.

📄ACT2020002_D-03583.pdf	Description of Error: Bending class of cross sections according EC3 could be wrongly calculated. Suggested User Action For Running on Uncorrected Version: N/A Comments: The error occurs when exists plates in pure traction. 08/07/2020 X Corrected by Firmado por: Javier Carro 08/07/2020 X Reviewed by Firmado por: Alberto Mota X Approval Firmado por: Hugo González 08/07/2020 FM–12001 – Rev.: 04 Abril 2017
📄ACT2020001_D-03569.pdf	Description of Error: Combinations with data sets defined with a result set different from last are wrongly done. Suggested User Action For Running on Uncorrected Version: N/A Comments: The combined result is always calculated with the last result set of ANSYS rst result file. If CivilFEM data sets are defined with the last result set (default value) the combination will be correct.
