Dear Sirs,

I have to model a series of cables between to reinforced concrete wall. Therefore I am trying to set a Link with a gap_hk between two coincident nodes at one end of each cable-element. Unfortunately, while trying to set up the link connectivity for some of these elements, I have encountered the following error: nodes 1&2 should coincide initially

I have checked carefully and I was not able to find any mistakes in the nodes' definition. Is there any other reason why the software should give me this kind of warning?

Regards,

PM

Dear paolomart,

Please check your nodes' coordinates.The nodes you use to define the link element should have exactly the same coordinates in X, Y, Z directions.

Thank you very much for the quick answer.
Unfortunately they absolutely do have the same coordinates: I have been defining the additional node copy/pasting the original node.

Dear paolomart,

Would you like to send me your project at z.gronti@seismosoft.com to take a look at it?

Thank you.

I have just sent to you the model.
