Editing Inadequate Elements in Timber Buildings with StatiCAD

For Version 9 and Later: You can resolve inadequacies using the "Select Inadequate Elements" and "Increase Selected Element Dimensions" options from the Macros menu.

If some elements still show inadequacy after re-running the analysis, you can repeat the process.

For V8 Versions, the Following Steps Can Be Followed:

After opening the model for 3D editing and running the analysis, go to the 3D Ultimate page on the startup screen.

You can also access the 3D Ultimate screen by pressing the NVM button on the Main Screen after analysis and turning off the finite element result display mode in the form that opens.

To see inadequate bar elements, close unnecessary layers such as wall and slab layers from the Layer button on the 3D Ultimate screen.

After analysis, inadequate elements will appear in pink color. To select inadequate elements, use the left mouse button for single selection, or Ctrl+Left Mouse Button for multiple selection. Selected elements will turn yellow.

Right-click and select the "Element Properties" option from the context menu.

Make the necessary changes in the element properties window. Apply the changes with the OK button.

An alternative (more difficult) method to the above is also presented in the video below.
