ANALYSIS_WARNING

[shelby.paz]

Hi, I work in a model of Timber frame and make different interactions in the nodes, used tree types of elements for each one with contact ZeroLength... and I can run the analysis

the columns and beams work with polylines because in each node I put some mass

but when I run the analysis for the pushover analysis give an error, I can found these

F3.PNG (40.39 KiB) Viewed 3347 times

Why I have this type o error??
I add the file because I can't understand what is wrong

dear User,
Unless you need interactions for specific conditions and/or properties (for example rigid link), we suggest to merge elements of the models. You can select elements you need to merge and then click on the merge button under the geometry tab. You still have single geometries and you can see on the list under the work tree, but you do not need a lot of interactions. Also, in this case we think it is better to add zerolenght on elements instead of nodes.
We fix some of this issues on the attach model.
We suggest to check the applied load because there are large deformations.
Please, let us know if you need any help.
Have a nice day.

I saw the correction you made in the file, but the question is, you work only with one interaction, and the other types of connection disappear, or when you merge the lines are assumed with the geometry? I try to replicate your steps but, I continue with the problems, how is possible to work with different properties in the nodes of union between beams and columns?

dear User,
when you merge geometry connection are assumed wth geometry, so we add the only interaction necessary in your model case.
As shown in the attacched images, we didn't assign the properties on nodes, but on the interaction. It is possible to add more condition on the same geometry (as well as on the same interaction), but only one physical or element property.
Please, let us know if you need anything else.
Have a nice day.
