AnalyticalMember.GetMemberForces

Method
Description:
Gets the member forces associated with this Analytical Member.
Remarks:
Member forces are strictly related with releases. This means that we can obtain member forces values only for directions that have releases set to false. Force or moment component on direction that have release set to true is skipped (zeroed) during getting.
Syntax
Examples
/// <summary>
/// Get the meber forces at the start of a beam

public MemberForces GetStartMemberForces(AnalyticalMember ams)
{
   MemberForces startForces = null;
   if (ams != null)
   {
      IList<MemberForces> beamForces = ams.GetMemberForces();
      foreach (MemberForces forces in beamForces)
      {
         if (forces.Start == true)
         {
            startForces = forces;
            break;
         }
      }
