STEP NO. 11 : BENDING MOMENT, SHEAR FORCE DIAGRAM  LOAD DISPLAY AND FILES OPTION
	When Program starts, the Menu above is displayed. Under the Graphics Heading following options are displayed. ● Joint + Col ● Beam ● Beam_H (Only Horizontal Beam # will be Displayed). ● Beam_V (Only Vertical Beam # will be Displayed). ● Slab + Beam (Beams, Slabs & Columns are displayed). ● Slab (Only Slabs & Columns are displayed). ● Joints + ALL (For Display of Joints, Columns, Beams & Slabs) ● Loads (Display of Slab, Point Loads & Reactions from Secondary Beams, to be used     after Analysis, and Design options have been successfully Run). ● BMD (Display of Bending Moment Diagram, to be used after Analysis, Design and    Quantity options have been successfully Run. ● SFD (Display of shear Force Diagram, to be used after Analysis, Design and     Quantity options have been successfully Run. ● Zoom (Display of part of Floor Plan under Selection).   Now Click on " BMD " option. Following Graphics is displayed.
	Now select " Example _1 File & Press Open Button. Following Warning is displayed.
	This is a very Important Message. In case a user has edited or added any Joint / Column / Beam or Slab Member after performing analysis then he should re-perform the analysis, else old (in-correct) results will be displayed. The Beam Designs are equally important as these options inform you about correctness of Beam Design. Click " Yes " if you have not revised any member after analysis or click " No " if you are not sure. If " Yes " is clicked then following graphics will be displayed.
	Type the Beam # whose BMD, you would like to see. I want to see BMD for B8. Enter " 8 " & Click Ok. Following message is displayed.
	You are asked to specify Magnification Factor (MF). You have to do trial & error to achieve the required MF for appropriate display on computer screen. Keep the MF of 5. Click OK. Following BMD is displayed.
	Note that BMD is drawn on Tension Side which reflects Deflected shape of Beam. BMD, SFD and Load Diagrams are Important from the point of Checking Results & Data Input. Any un-expected Diagram will reflect Data Error in the form of : ● Incorrect Geometry (Span, Grid Dimension). ● Incorrect Loads (Point Load, Slab Spanning). ● Floor Analysis and Beam Design not performed after Editing / Adding Geometry or Loads. Now Click on " SFD " option. The procedure is exactly same as that of BMD. SFD is displayed as under. MF = 5.0
	Now Click " Loads " button. The procedure is exactly same as that of BMD / SFD. Load Diagram is displayed for Beam No. 24 as under. MF = 5 Near Intensity & Far Intensity = 0 means no direct Floor load on the beam. However Point Loads from secondary Beams are present.
	The best way to check data entry is Load Diagram. Check that Loads are Correct in magnitude as well as in Location & Shape. Check the presence or absence of Point Load Reaction from Secondary beams. In the present case the reaction point load is from Beams B9, 10, 12 & B13. Check span with total of slab load distances. All distances are from LHS.
	Now Click " Files " button at the top. Following window is displayed.
	Here we have 2 menus, one for Floor file and another for Column Project File. Use " For Floor Files Only " option to Copy, Delete & Move / Re-Name Floor Files. Now we will copy Example_1 file to Example_2 file. Click " Source " Button & select Eample_1 File from the file Dialogue Box. Again Click " Destination " Button & select Eample_2 File from the file Dialogue Box. Click " Copy " button. Following Window is displayed.
	Similarly we can use Delete Option to Delete Files, however note that there will be no " Destination " file & destination text box shall be empty.   Note that Floor File extension is " .CMP ", while Column Project File Extension is " .DAT ".   The Column-Foundation File menu is similar to Floor File Menu, only difference is File extension. Hence Use " For Column " option to Copy, Delete & Move / Re-Name Column and Foundation Files.   Now we have come to the end of Step # 11.
STEP NO. 11 IS OVER.
