Histogram Plot

To plot Histograms of results after a Probabilistic Analysis:

1. Select Plot Histogram from the toolbar or Statistics menu.
2. Select the Failure Mode (e.g. Shear, Elastic Buckling, Arch Snap Thru, or Compression, whichever is applicable).
3. Select the Data to Plot (e.g. Factor of Safety, or one of your input data random variables).
4. Enter a Number of Bins. The default is 30, but any value between 2 and 100 can be entered.
5. Click Plot.

The Histogram will be generated, and the mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum values for the data plotted, will be listed at the bottom of the Histogram.
