Re: Truss elements: no force and no movement when out-of-plane deformation

Thank your for your quick reply and helping me!

I checked, there is deformation in the truss elements. The linear relation F = EA/L * dl works until the yielding of the steel.

I also get the " zero diagonal term " error appearing. Is it the problem ? I suspect it's because in my case the truss ...

Truss elements: no force and no movement when out-of-plane deformation

Hi!

I'm trying to model a simple 2D wall using beam-truss model. I modelize the columns at both ends of the wall by infrmDB elements while the horizontal beams, vertical columns and diagonals inside the wall are made of truss elements. The model should be available on the picture below.
