The truss design results and the shortage of steel trusses are displayed in the Trusses dialog. In the Trusses dialog, the axial compressive strength ratio, slenderness control and design ratio of the truss elements are displayed.
Location of the Trusses Dialog
After the analysis is done, you can access it by clicking the Truss command under the Steel Design heading in the ribbon menu Analysis and Design tab .

Section  It is the section used in truss elements. |
Material  It is the material used in truss elements. |
Combination  It is the load combination that produces the most unfavorable axial capacity ratio. |
Pr  It is the largest axial force calculated by using load coefficients among the elements forming the trusses. |
Pn/Omega  Among the elements that make up the trusses, the most negative is the safe axial strength. |
Ratio  It is the axial capacity ratio. |
Strength check  It is an information box whose sign changes according to the presence or absence of negativity in the section. |
Slenderness  It is the delicacy value of the truss elements. |
Limit value  The maximum permitted slenderness of the truss elements |
Slenderness check  It is an information box whose sign changes according to whether the delicacy limit is exceeded or not. |
