Please ensure that the 'FEM' button located in the top-middle of the screen is active. If the button is inactive, the 'Analysis' button will not appear.

Once the 'Analysis' button appears in the top left corner, it indicates that the FE model has been compiled and is ready for analysis.

→ Click on it to initiate the finite element analysis (FEA) of the precast I-girder bridge.

→ Once the analysis is completed, click the "Close" button to exit the analysis interface.

→ Proceed by clicking the "Design" button to calculate the parametric design parameters and collect the analysis results required for the design reports.

→ After the design run is completed, click on the "OK" button to start viewing the created design reports.

→ Clicking on the "Report" and "Detailed Report" buttons successively will display a range of design reports that can be accessed.

→ By clicking on the "Detailed Report" option, you will be able to access a diverse range of design outputs that provide:
i) specific reports, and
ii) code checks
