Failure Determination: Beam Stress Estiates are used to determine if a 2D FEA beam/combo analysis should be run. The maximum beam vonmises stress is compared the the beam material allowable stress / saftey factor.

Override: Depending on number of load cases, this analysis could take a while. Its encouraged to use a similar pattern of check and exit to reduce load combo size in an effort to fail early. Override this function if nessicary.

Case / Beam Ordering: runs the gravity case first and checks for failure to exit early, then all other combos are run :returns: a dictionary with 2D fea failures and esimated failures as well for each beam
