Hi,
I have been using the "Honeycomb Core - Crushing, Joint Support Load" failure option with v5.6.38 to calculate crushing margins. I am using a 3D model with Hex elements to represent the honeycomb core. I have local crushing loads introduced into the structure from attached fittings. I have verified by hand calculation that Hypersizer is using the Hex element compressive stress directly against the allowable crush stress for the honeycomb core material (the stress report did not show this, but that's another issue). This is as expected and a useful way to size such regions.
However, my analysis methodology requires the allowable crush stress to be factored by the same height correction factor used to knock-down the shear stress allowable. Currently if I go to the honeycomb material form, the Shear strength correction factor is listed on the 'Stiffness tab' (which is confusing because it applies to the Strength, and not the Stiffness). I need to use this same correction factor for the Crushing allowable, or maybe have another factor definition that applies to Crush.
