REQUEST: A way to include multiple ts values in the beam force envelopes #82

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not a problem really - just a request

Describe the solution you'd like A way to get a simple max/min back per element that covers the selected load combinations (already works) AND multiple points along the beam (not currently possible within the component)

Describe alternatives you've considered Alternatives are standard gh practice - use data manipulation to go from the returned datasets to a max/min. But then this needs to be done per output, which gets messy quickly.

Additional context For finding overall worst cases quickly. Perhaps one way would be to put a "-1" into the ts input so that the worst values from anywhere along the beam are returned?

Hello @jjsolly, thanks for the feature request! I think this is a good idea. I have to check how complicated it is to implement. There could be an additional boolean input "Combine" which combines the results of the specified Beams and t-values. -- Clemens

Thanks Clemens, something like that sounds really good!
