Target-force

is

a

staged-construction

...

application

...

in

which

cable

tension

is

specified,

deformation

load

is

iteratively

applied

until

that

target

tension

is

achieved.

If

a

scale

factor

is

...

applied

...

to

...

the

load

...

pattern

...

which

...

contains

a

target-force

...

load,

the

target

force

...

will

...

also

...

be

scaled.

Since

tension

may

vary

along

the

length

of

a

cable,

the

relative

location

of

target

tension

...

must

also

be

specified.

...

Tension

may

...

exist

...

in

a

cable

...

before

analysis

begins,

therefore

iterative

displacement

...

may

...

be

...

positive

...

or

...

negative.

A

exhibit

at
