~CFFILE2

 

~CFFILE2, NFILE, Name

Specify different RCV files from which to read the load steps for checking with the ACI359 code, calculate updated forces & moments of cracked section and the seismic margin check.

            DATABASE: Parameter

NFILE

Specifies the number of the results file. It refers to the load step to be read: LSP, SSP for NFILE=1, LSL, SSL for NFILE=2, and LST, SST for NFILE=3. To specify the seismic load step for ~HCLPFCN and ~HCLPFST commands then NFILE=4. Use NFILE=5  to specify the results file of the mechanical loads that are acting with strain-dependent loads and will be used in concrete stress redistribution (concrete relax) procedure to reduce forces and moments created by these strain-dependent loads.

Name

Name of the results file (including path and extension) up to 256 characters.

Notes

- If any of this files are not specified CivilFEM will look for the loadstep in the active results file.

- The name of the secondary results files is stored in the model database (~CFSAVE command). If a different results file is needed, the ~CFFILE2 command must be issued again. A blank name in the ~CFFILE2 command will redirect to the active RCV file.

- In case NFILE =5, specify the load step and substep after name argument (for example: ~CFFILE2,5, Mechanical_Loads.RCV,1,1).
