The model should not pose a great problem, unless I am missing something, Benham. You could either use truss elements for the braces or force-based inelastic elements with releases. The other member could be inelastic force-based elements. I encourage you to search the forum for 'truss' and ''release' if you do start the modeling and have problems. The forum should have a number of good discussions on the topic already. Best of luck.
