Hi,

I have created a 1D 2 node Beam element and assigned with integrated beam property (type18) as shown below.

This is a rectangular beam element. 

Now I want to create a Beam with circular cross section. 

Could anyone please guide me by telling which parameter I should be changing to create circular beam element?
