Ok, I checked member #46. It the post processor the utilization ratio is reported as 15.4. In the Output file the ratio is 0.293/0.019 = 15.42, so the results are the same. Aren't you getting this?

Sir, the result value of deflection/displacement ( #46 293mm in output file while in post processing view value result = 10.641mm under L/C 12). 293mm displacement looks like not shown in the graph.
