			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello Daniel, you definitely have to also define a load case with supports and apply it in the load steps. </p><p>If you define the nominal force in your load case and wish to divide it into 60 steps, the step multiplier should be 1/60 in each step. </p><p>W.r.t. the monitor, component 3 of what have you selected? External force is what you are interested in when applying force loading (reaction when applying prescribed displacement).</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi. I want to applie a predescibed force at my structure. I want it to load with 50 kN at every loadstep upp to 3000 kN.</p><p>I have tried to do like this:<br />I go under loading--&gt;load cases--&gt;add. The I chose Forces. </p><p>I the go under Joints--&gt;add. <br />Chose magnitude: 3,0 MN, <br />coordinate system: Global, <br />Direction: other, Xg=0,0 Yg=0,0 Zg=-1,0</p><p>and then I manually chose the node I want applie the force on.</p><p>Then I go under Run--&gt;analysis steps--&gt; <br />load cases: 1--&gt;<br />Global solution params: Standard Newton Rhapson--&gt; <br />Analysis step mult: 1,0--&gt; <br />number of added load steps: 60</p><p>Then I go uner monitoring points --&gt;<br />type:value at node--&gt;<br />Item: component 3--&gt;<br />topological data: Macroelement--&gt;<br />Macroelement:I chose the macroelement I applied the load at--&gt;<br />closest to the point: Here I manually put in the coordinates where I applied the load. </p><p>The problem is when I run it. I get a message that says the RHS vector is zero. And the force and everything else is also zero. </p><p>Any ideas whats wrong?</p>]]></description>
