It seems to have no effect when it is applied to group or individual elements affected by the load.

h1. Answer

When appliedtendons which are grouped using the group ALL feature? Load does not seem to transfer to individual tendons or tendons within the standard group.

*Answer:* When [tendons|kb:Tendon] are modeled as loads, the tendons do not exist aswithin elements in the model. Theas loads are applied to joints, frames, shells, solids, etc. You can control the loading by groups that include the loaded elements. That is why group ALL works. There are three choicesobjects ([joints|kb:Joint], [frames|kb:Frame], [shells|kb:Shell], [solids|kb:Solid], etc.). As a result, load must be applied to groups which contain these entities. The group ALL feature is useful for this purpose.

Three options are available for [modeling|kb:Modeling techniques] tendons:

# Model tendons as elements, objects.

# Determine which objects thewill elementsbe loaded by thestressed tendons, andthen create groups to control the loading.

Then for a given stage, apply these load patterns to objects within group ALL.
