Open a view and change the view regime
to Results View.
On the ribbon, the Results tab is displayed.
- Set the analysis type and loading for viewing analysis results.

In the Reactions group, select the reactions to be displayed:
Option Description 1D Reactions at supports under 1D elements (e.g. column support reactions), 2D Reactions at supported nodes of 2D elements (individual meshed wall supports and mat foundation supports), Distributed wall reactions (Fz) - available for self-supported meshed, mid-pier, bearing and shear-only wall panels with horizontal bottom levels. When active the nodal support reactions exclusive to the wall are hidden.
Summary of assumptions,- Wall panel has enough height to ensure that all loading that contributes to the reaction is far enough from the support such that the principle of St. Venant is considered valid,
- Material is perfectly homogeneous and isotropic,
- Elastic limit is nowhere exceeded and 'E' is same in tension and compression.
Integrated reactions at core supports. When active support reactions exclusively from 1D and 2D core members are hidden.

For Distributed wall
reactions the droplist beneath should be set to Total, for other
support reactions you can select the desired reaction from the droplist.
Option Description Fx support local x axis reaction (corresponds to Fminor in the Foundation Reactions Report), Fy support local y axis reaction ((corresponds to Fmajor in the Foundation Reactions Report), Fz support local z axis reaction (corresponds to Fvert in the Foundation Reactions Report), Mx support local x axis moment (corresponds to Mmajor in the Foundation Reactions Report). My support local y axis moment (corresponds to Mminor in the Foundation Reactions Report) Mz support local z axis moment (corresponds to Mtor in the Foundation Reactions Report) Fxyz support local reactions in Fx and Fy and Fz Mxyz support local reactions in Mx and My and Mz Total all support local reactions (Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My and Mz. - From the Text group select Reaction to display values on the diagram.
