CBAR ERROR

Hi,

Please check the orientation of the 1D element and change the orientation accordingly.

A quick suggestion: before you run the analysis when using bar and beam elements, change the element representation to 3D and check if they are properly oriented or not. 

can you check if there any free 1D elements or duplicate 1D elements in your model?

go to >> tool>> check elems>> 1D>> free 1d's

if there are any free 1D elements, please connect them. Delete any duplicate 1D elements

Thankyou

Hi Sanjay,

Thanks for the reply

i have checked for the free 1ds and duplicates.there are no duplicates or free 1d.

All the elements are beam elements but the error is for bar(CBAR). How to find that element.

And also how do i check whether the orientations are correct.

Hi 

display all elems

f5 select elems >> by id >> enter 3729 >> mask >> reverse all

zoom in and update its orient
