Hello, In the past, a rigid connection or a spring could be defined between the selected node points. I can't do this in the latest version. Is there a new method? Thanks. Halim Kerim Bass
 
Hello there; You can add supports, displacements or loads via nodes. If you want to create an arc, you have to do it from the freedoms section of the element's own properties. The attached image will help. Good work.
 
Hi, I have no problem adding springs and freedoms to the endpoints of the element. In the past, it was possible to add a rigid connection between two nodes by selecting two nodes on the analysis model, but now I do not see such an option. I wanted to ask if this option is still possible. Thanks for your answer. Halim Kerim Bass
 
Hello Mr. Karim; Rigid connection option is available in version 7, but this option is not available in version 8. During the modeling, you need to model the two nodes to which you will provide rigid connection as a single node. Good work.
