Hi all,
I've a structure to analyse for foundation load where a loading section is rested on the beam as shown in the picture below. Members was given a dummy material with no stiffness so it wouldn't add any strength to the structure. And, I've modelled the nodes and used Master/Slave and compression only on of the member. But it is creating lots of warnings and instability message. Am I not doing it correctly or is there a better way to model to get more realistic results?
