Directions in ETABS 1

[insajn]

Hello

Could someone tell me how to know the directions in ETABS ? like sometimes it says bending moment 1-1 or 1-2 or 3-3
But how to know which one to use or what is the meaning of each notation ?

Have a look at the local coordinate system, where directions 1-2-3 are defined.
