Saving a Calculation

 Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

With as much as we have accomplished in this short period of time, it is very important to remember that we have not yet SAVED this calculation. Everything associated with this calculation is still stored in the computer's RAM. A power outage or severe system lockup would cause a loss of your current calculation.

 

So to save this new calculation to the Project File, click the [Save & Close] button clip0247_was_BMP. The current calculation will be saved and the display will return to the Project Manager.  In the image below, you can see that a Wood Beam calculation has been added to the Division named "Calculations":

Congratulations! Your calculation is now saved and you have a real Project File with an actual calculation.
