Calculation the CG of the column loads in SFA Mat foundation

SFA does not calculate the CG of the column loads in MAT / Combined foundation (including the equivalent axial load due to the column base moments). Therefore, user has to calculate this manually, for each MAT/combined foundation group! For users, that is going to be very time consuming. The SFA software should have the inbuilt mechanism to calculate the column load of CGs.

I hope we, the Bentley, consider this important issue while developing the software, at least in the future release.
