Hi Huffte,
thanks a lot for your help!!!

Hello,
I am modelling base isolated structure using link elements. Could please anyone send me any model with base isolation to see how to model or suggest me any work on this topic?
Thanks a lot.

<t>Hi Rui,<br/>
what I meant was if modelling with a single infrm FB element without subdivision into several elements is as accurate as modeling with subdivison. I never thought that Manual of SeismoStruct could be suggesting something that is not correct. I just want to be sure of what I'm doing ...

<t>Hi,<br/>
thanks a lot to have taken a look at my model.<br/>
I tried with infrm DB elements but I have a Max_Tol error message and although I made settings adjustements I cannot solve. Modelling with infrm FB elements without subdivision of beams and columns in more elements and using 5-7 ...

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
the static loads can be sustained by the structure because I ran a static analysis before dividing infrm FB in six parts. Then I created new sections and new element classes to be assigned to bays and when I run analysis again it ends with error message. I have 4 integration ...

Thanks for your advice. I watched the video and I tried but it doesn't work. Is it possible that a big number of element classes causes this problem? Can I send you my model at support@seismosoft.com?
Thanks

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
I am modeling a building of six storeys in reinforced concrete with infrm FB elements.I run an eigenvalue analysis and it works but when I run static analysis it ends with the message: <br/>
"fbd_Ite<br/>
Unable to apply the entire permanent load. Analysis terminated."<br ...

<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
I'm trying to make an eigenvalue analysis but when I run the model, Seismostruct gives an error message : " Maximum size of the array ClassPnt exceeded. Analysis interrupted."<br/>
Is it because the modelling is too large to run on a PC with 4 GB of RAM or because I have a ...
