Follow the below instruction to Run Tributary Analysis
Table 1: Tributary Analysis
| 1 | Go to Tributary under AEC|BOLT from tree view. I want to make the tributary Area Factors of C20 and C24 columns 1.1 instead of "1" for each floor. Tributary results will be on the safe side by increasing the correction factor, for more conservative approach, increase the correction factor. I need the "Live Load Reduction" code for this, if this code is not imported, add it from Design Criteria. |  |
| 2 | Go to Tributary Correction Factors Tab at same spreadsheet. Hover over the "Name" column in the spreadsheet and right click. Select the filter from the combobox and select only column C20 and C24 from the list. |  |
| 3 | Set the "Tributary Area Factors" of columns C20 and C24 to 1.1 for each floor. You can see Reducible Area on this spreadsheet. Click the "Show" button to see the placement of a column for which you have increased the Tributary Area factors on the CAD side |  |

| 5 | Come back to Tributary Analysis Settings and Run Tributary. |  |
Follow the below instruction to Run AECBolt Slab Analysis.
Table 2: Global FE Model Analysis
| 1 | Go to Global FE Model frrom tree view. "Run Mesh?" set the cell to True and click the "Generate FEM" button |  |
| 2 |  | |
| 3 | Click “Run Analysis” button. Click the close button when the AECBolt FE Analysis is complete. |  |
The “Analysis” part is completed in this step.
You can proceed to the “CSI Analysis Software Export & Import” section.
