Once the user Runs the Analysis and then Designs the Pier Cap and Column then the user needs to click on "Diagrams" Option on the Toolbar. In the new window under Objects Heading the user needs to select Cap options and under Type the user needs to select Moment or Shear option and check the box right next to Analysis/Design. Then the user should be able to see the Pier Cap Moment and Shear Diagram and the user can see the Max and Min moment at the top of the screen.
