Hi,

I tried removing the element set (Spring element) from the model using MODCHG , while doing so it errors out

*** ERROR # 4921 ***
 The element being removed/reactivated can only be solid element.
 Removal/reactivation of element #152 (referenced by SET #1)
 with MODCHG #3 is not supported.

 

If i try removing shell/solid element using MODCHG, its working fine

 

Is it Possible to remove  1D/ spring element set ?
