10A. DIMENSIONING PART 1/4

So in conclusion, we would say that when I want to exclude one direction from a pole so that it does not become satisfactory, I go to the characterization and choose the direction of the local axis that is parallel to the direction of the earthquake I want to exclude. Now if the pole is twisted or the pseudo axes are twisted as in the EAK, I choose the local one with the smaller angle than the corresponding seismic one I want exclude. In this way the program will calculate acd for me only for the specific seismic direction (but obviously for both local directions of the pole) and will not calculate any acd for the seismic combinations of the other direction. Indicatively in the following printout:
