# Stage Materials

Stage materials are used to specify analysis materials for analysis stages where these are to differ from the whole model element materials. The table maps from the element materials (referenced by property), to a material number to be used inn the analysis stage. Materials not referenced in the analysis stage materials retain the material defined in the element property reference.

# Definition

Stage

The analysis stage for which the properties are to be adjusted.

Element Material

The material number defined in the element properties.

Stage Material

The material to be mapped for this stage.

Creep Coefficient

The creep coefficient used for concrete materials in stage. Click Code in the wizard to get a code-specific creep value.
