RE: save/restore option
i will explain elaborate, In GTsrudl : There is a option called "save and restore". At end of the stiffness analysis we can save our model by giving any name say STATIC1 . The analysis results will be...

I agree with what Amir mentioned with just one addition. A PERFROM ANALYSIS and CHANGE is not required after the first design set. You should only analyze when you have to. A CHECK CODE command does...
