While working with WeldFEM, information, warning or error messages can appear. This chapter explains the different messages WeldFEM could issue during the assessment of a structure. For warning and error messages clues on what the possible cause and solution is also be given.


The notes on the information, warning and error messages are summarised in tabular form as follows:


Type of Information/Warning/Error


'MESSAGE'

Description

'description of the information issued.'

Cause

'potential cause of the warning/problem.'

Solution

'probable solution to the warning/problem.'

Consequence If Ignored

'A brief description of what the consequences for the assessment results are in case the user ignores the message and continues the assessment.'


Note:        Description is only available for information messages.
Cause, Solution and Consequence If Ignored are only available for warning and error messages.
