Bug Description Solution

NWEB-9NFBU5 Every loads in the load case LC2 can't be displayed graphically when masses from this loads are generated. Problems seems to come from the fact that those loads are defined on subregions.

DPIS-9PRFZN Question: wrong results by using a mesh size smaller then 1m by load panels. Can you have a look at the small project attached? I have created a small project with a load panel and a plate, both of 2m x 2m, supported in the 4 nodes. Loaded this panel and plate equally with an ecentric point load of -100 kN in the Z direction. So the resultant of reactions should be Rz = 100 kN and My = 50 kNm. For the plate, these results can be found. It does not matter what the mesh size is. For the load panel, this result can only be found by using a panel mesh size of 1m². If you use a smaller mesh size, the moment My is no longer correct (bigger than 50 kNm). Why is the result for the load panel not the same as for the plate?

A new load transfer method has been implemented - FEM - hinged link with beams. If the new method is selected on the panel, the results are as you expected. The sum of reactions corresponds to the reactions from the original load.

NWEB-9FTCZW Why is sum of vectors not always zero? Open project "windverdeling test (bad).esa" and look at the engineering report (I've already put the important pictures there)., You'll see reaction forces for certain loads., What is wrong with them? Sometimes the reaction forces have an arrow in the opposite (general) direction of the load, while for other load cases the reaction forces have an arrow in the same

Tested in 14.007.87 (Act_Full_Deve_07) OK

Ticket number(s)


(general) direction of the load., So one of them has to be wrong. It seems the problem is related to the fact that the supports are rotated.

NWEB-9P8KBM A customer asks why there is a difference in yhe internal forces of 2 beams. One curved beam (S9) is modelled with a variable cross section but the section is kept constant and the other beam (S10) is a curved beam with the same cross section. Seet the picture and .esa file in the attachment. An explanation about the cause of the difference would be welcome.


CHEK-9LZBHH project in attachment crashes on non-linear construction stage calculation (user uses modified newton-rhapson, but also Picard crashes) It seems to be when he starts with stage 2. It's very urgent for client since they are blocked. The message from the solver crash is in txt file. Tested both in version 2013 (client) and 14.0.1039 (support) Please advise work-around or solution.

JPOL-9TNEGV Crash report Crash of SEn in case you press Save button and directly close the program. In case you are impatient and click the Close button in top right corner right after you try to save your project (and the saving is not fast enough), you receive a crash that cause - even worse - data loss because there is no recovery after restart of SEn. Right before the crash there is a message saying that some file in Temp is inaccessible - see the picture in crash report. The crash is reported in attached zip files and is project independent.

Problem already solved in r15. Workaround for customer is not to close application until the Save function is finished (visible in status bar).

Template project is referenced to the wrong company. From a reaction of "Patrick Alberti" from "Alberti Ingénieurs S.A.", the project in screenshot is referenced to the wrong company (Arup NY). This should be replaced by "Alberti Ingénieurs S.A."

NWEB-9M56QK Issue: Scia Engineer 14.0 can't be opened. After installing Scia Engineer 14.0.115, the program can't be started. Each time there is a crash report (see attachment). The software is already deinstalled (after deleting the workspace in the registry), the temp folder is deleted, ... Nothing seems to work. Can you analyse the crash report?

Already fixed in revision 84941 in deve 05. The problematic xml file is empty. The fix causes that whatever is missing after load from xml, it is added from defaults. You can test it with the attached xml, put it in User folder and start ESA, no crash should appear. After close the xml file should have full content. The deleting of XML files were added to the Reset GUI button option.

NWEB-9MBHRR I thought it was not possible to define an arbitrary profile with 2 cross-sections having defined with different material. Is it correct? If Yes then there is a bug when defining an arbitray profile. I was wondering because in project 'TEST' in attachment, I was able to define an arbitrary profile with section 1 (S235) and section 3 (S460 N/NL). However when I do this then: - change Section 3 (S460 N/Nl) into Section 2 (S235) to have the same material for both section 1 and 2: No problem - change back Section 2 to Section 3: the message 'Selected cross section is not valid, please select another cross section'

fixed in R15 (tested on 15.098.43). It is not possible to input it any more but in the attached project it is already defined, so it is not possible to test on attached file if the current settings for arbitrary beam is not remove

If this not because of the different material, then what could it be?

NWEB-9Q4E69 missing tension force for "only pressure" 2D Elements, There is a structure from customer., The 2D Part S448 is “only pressure” defined., This is also ok. It gets no tension in NC1, But if you look at the axial forces, then in the wall S439 and S440 we get 8kN tension force., This must be somewhere between the top and bottom wall., But in the bolts B120, B121 and B122 there is only 0,01kN tension force and in the short walls S453 and S454 there is pressure of -0,02., But where is the 8kN

NNLL-9R9E6X Aluminium: Issue in Bending Check alpha ratio The Aluminium bending check shows an alpha value of 1,02 In essence alpha can be maximally 1,00. I believe the issue here is that the Wel of the gross section is used and not the Wel of the initial shape.

07/01 PVT: Modified in P version 15.098.26The unexpected alpha value was caused by an inaccurate user input: the initial shape does not properly match the gross shape and in this case has an inertia which even exceeds the gross shape.A limit was added to the alpha value however the user should review the cross-section and modify the initial shape accordingly. The general section editor allows the visualisation of both the 'Basic shape' and the 'Thin-walled representation'. This can be used to visualise if the shape matches or not. In typical situations the initial shape is slightly smaller than the gross shape, not bigger.

NWEB-9PM6QC Solver crashes when calculating project in attachment with seismic load case. Is it possible to recover the project with seismic loads?


NWEB-9MYDSL solver crashes on NL comb 19 (also if you give the file a very short name), I tried to run the project with only one cross section on it and still does not work , (the combination when the error appears is changing with the cross section number, appearing even for smaller combinations as 14 or 15) . , If I remove other NL combinations, and only calculate NL comb 19, then no problem., If I calculate NL comb 18 untill 25, then the messages as you can see in image start to appear (if I click 'ok' then it appears again for the next combination), How can we fix the calculation?

NWEB-9FJJGU The comment by user to bug => link in attachments I am confused whether the 0.225% is to be used to control crack and deflection in which case the term would be over-reinforcement or you would like to say that this is a pure tension case. I suspect it is meant to be pure tension but then I do not see where the 0.225% comes from? I will again refer to BS8110 Table 3.25 as sent previously and there is no 0.225%. Why Shells only? Shell can take bending and shear and pure tension is a case with in plane forces only ie tensile force only in the member.

Ticket number(s)


I would like to know why 0.225% and then I think we need to rename it in SCIA as "overtensionned" is misleading.

NWEB-9LG5RX Wrong unity check appears in the old concrete capacity check. Please see capacity check of member 210 in attached project (activity is already filtering this member when you open the file). The normal force N in section is -4708 kN and limit normal force Nu is -8378kN. I would expect UC=0,56 but it is inverted and SEn gives us the value of 1,78 (se attached picture with the detailed output). Note that new concrete (beta) gives NEd=4708 kN (identical as above), NRd=9181kN (nearly identical as above) but the UC=0,51 (correctly). Tested in 14.0.115

The problem will be solved in version SEN15

NWEB-9LZKPS See project in attachment and do the punching check. The customer has defined an opening near the column, but it looks like Scia Engineer does not take into account the opening. When deleting the opening, we have exactly the same result, however, I would expect we get a lower value of VEd. I have found already that the problem is located at the position of the column. At this moment, it is set as 'parallel Y side' but when changing it to an 'internal' column, the opening is taken into account in the punching check. So for the moment, I also suggested this workaround to the customer. Why is the opening not taken into account with other positions than internal position?

The problem is solved in SEN15

NWEB-9NC8B4 User sometimes has troubles with the 'End' function (ESC or right mouse button). It mostly happens when he is placing 1D members. After placing them, the mouse keeps showing the snap points, he then has to select other functions in the menu first before he can draw another element. Issue is not reproducable on support, but maybe you have some information that prevents this on user side?

JPOL-9QQEVT Regular crash of SEn after connecting nodes. If you open attached project, select all, disconnect members/nodes and connect them again, SEn crashed right after Check structure data is finished. See 2 crash reports and a message that appears during connection of members/nodes. Tested in 14.0.1043


JPOL-9QYHLW Load panel doesn't generate load to edges of subregions. Take a look at attached project and pictures. There is a slab with subregions, but the edge corresponding to subregion is not taken into account for load transfer if the load panel has got type "panel to edges and beams). It takes - ont he other hand - into consideration two additional edges that have nothing to do with the panel. Only panel type "panel to edges" works OK. Tested in 14.0.1043


JPOL-9R2D5Y View perpendicular to working plane doesn't change the view so that axis X is horizontal and Y vertical in case that USS is only rotated around global Z. In case your USS is absolutely general (rotated, inclined, whatever)the command "view perpendicular to working plane" changes the view so that we see the structure in direction of current Z axis and current X and Y correspond to edges of your screen. However, when the USS is only rotated around global Z, we see the structure in direction of Z axis but current X and Y are not horizontal and vertical. See attachec picture.

Fixed in Deve_23 and merged into R_15

JPOL-9RLBX5 The problem with linear support and linear calculation You compare result at setting for line supports – flexible x nonlinear. The results have to be the same. You look at example in attachment. It was tested: Scia Engineer 14.0.1043 and Scia Engineer 14.1.76

JPOL-9QTGMC Crash of SEn during picture refresh. Attached two crash reports report a situation when I opened attached project, activated old document, selected picture "NORMÁLOVÁ SÍLA N_-1 / NORMAL FORCE N_-1" (in chapter TRÁMY), clicked on Refresh button and waited...until SEn crashed. Tested in 14.0.1043

Problem identified and solved in version 15

JPOL-9PAD22 POD: Connect members/nodes function does not connect anything if there POD: Connect members/nodes function does not connect anything if there is no selection. When I run connection of all entities (without any selection) error messages about "genex error" and "no connections" (see attachment) appear. When I run the same but with some selected entites, they are connected. Why?

Muzete me zastihnout i na mobilu: 730 190 009(Tomas Kurina), Dekuji HER: seems to be problem with subregion

fixed in R15; please correct the subregion R464 according to picture in comment (nodes N5762 and N5771 move to slab edge), tested on 15.098.43

HBAI-9PVH5N Proposal: When calculating minimum reinforcement of a 2D-element in the Dutch national annex SEN14 uses formula 9.1N. This formula is the same as in the NEN-1992-1-1 but they call it As,min1. But Scia doesn't calculate As,min2 = 1,25 x As, calculated in ULS. Can we implement this simple formula in future versions of Scia Engineer? See attachment for formula As,min2 in NEN-EN1992-1-1.

NWEB-9PRLUR Incorrect mass on an arc Try please to open the "...simplified.esa" file and run the modal analysis. The line mas on the arc gives an error message, that the mass is incorrect. I tried to reduce the length but without success.

NNLL-9TEB34 Combination key table shows combinations without permanent loadcases Please check the attached structure. There are the combinations CO1 and SLU. Both combinations contains the 2 permanent loadcaes.

Solved in Deve_06, merged into R_15 (see also attached comments)

Ticket number(s)


The permanent loadcases MUST be in all combinations which are generated from CO1 and SLU. But if you look at the result tables in Engineering report, you will see /2 and /11 combinations. These combinations doesn't contains the permanent loadcases, as displayed in the combination key table. Also if I create new engineering report, its te same. So the engineering report is not responsible. I tried to remove the absencies, create new combinations, change the loadcases from permanent to variable and back, but all without success.

NNLL-9QZHRE Nonlinear calculation of attached project stops with solver.exe message during 1st iteration. But I can not identify the probem from the error message. Mesh generation is ok, linear calculation is ok. Nonlinearity is needed for tension only members in structure. If I try 14.1, nonlinear calculation starts without error message. Can we provide 14.1.67 to customer?

Hi Helmut,this is one of the issues that have been fixed in the new solver in 14.1.Please check the results in 14.1.67 and, if everything is ok, you can give it to the customer.

HWRE-9RGK82 SIA Check: Actual My is used instead of Max My SIA LTB check, lin. combi. CO1: max My = 10 kNm, max Mz = 7,5 kNm, both in the middle of the column. In LTB check, the My is not considered. See attachment.

19/12 PVT: Solved in P version build 15.098.26My max is now determined correctly.
