Specifies the maximum amount of angular change that any one support can experience between iterations. For difficult-to-converge problems, values of 0.1 have proven effective. When small values are used, you should be prepared for many iterations. The total number of iterations can be estimated from the following:

Estimate number of Iterations = 1.5(x)/(r)/(Rod Increment)

Where:

x = maximum horizontal displacement at any one rod

r = rod length at that support
