To gather the related axial forces (specifically for the Strength Limit State), 1.Analyze the global model. Then, on the FEA tab, go to Composite Element Forces (Sectional).

For further clarification, refer to the video attached below.

Plate: Specify the plate for which the analysis will be run.
Fx on Each Side: Specify the Fx force to be applied to the plate. Refer to the Info Panel above for further information on extracting the related axial force from the global model.
