Description

Attempting to automate the dimensioning process of steel columns using FEM design and Grasshopper. Multiple columns are consolidated in a single file, and various analyses are executed. Seeking comprehensive documentation of each step to facilitate easy verification of the work. Consequently, the "Detailed Result" feature in FEM design is preferred, as it displays the utilized formulas, utilization rates, etc., providing a level of detail not found in the documentation generator of FEM design. The challenge with "Detailed Result" is that it requires a considerable amount of manual clicking within FEM design to extract the information. Does anyone have a solution to streamline this process? The goal is to create a template similar to the documentation, but I have yet to achieve this for detailed results.
