Re: 2D frame with only tension X brace
For an example of what you are trying to model, please refer to Example 7 of the verification report and the corresponding files Ch2-07_A.spf, Ch2-07_B.spf & Ch2-07_C.spf in the samples files folder.
For the pinching behaviour you can select a link element curve with the behaviour you want to simulate
