- For more information about the content of the element results for each checking, see Theory Manual, sections corresponding to EA, BS 5950, AISC LRFD, Eurocode3, GB50017, AISC ASD Ninth Edition, ANSI/AISC N690, ASME BPVC III Subsection NF, AISC 13th Edition, AISC 14th Edition, AISC 15th Edition  and CTE DB SE-A.

- Stresses are given in users units.

- The graphic output will be stored in two temporal etables named CFETAB_I and CFETAB_J.

- The annotations that appear in the graph are automatically deleted in order to avoid being shown in the following drawings. Therefore, if the REPLOT command is used, the new drawing will not have annotations. To get back the annotations, issue the ~PLLSSTL command again or send it to a file.

- All calculations are made according to what is stated in the article’s specifications of the corresponding codes for the corresponding solicitation, following the proceedings explained in the Theory Manual.

- To have access to the command through the corresponding menu option, the corresponding code must be active (see ~CODESEL command).
