How can I merge two nodes at the center?

I created an RBE3 from a Shell element as shown in the image.
I want to merge these nodes into a shared node.

My final goal is to create a CELAS element during this time and then share the nodes.
As shown in the figure below

I would appreciate any help.

Thank you.

    Hello, Kotaru.

    I hope you're doing well.

    To merge two nodes at halfway, you can use the replace tool. Go to Elements ribbon > Edit group > Edit Elements > Replace tool:

    Make sure Replace at midpoint is selected. You'll then have something like this:

    Hope this answers your question!
