As we noted in the email we sent you a couple of days ago, if you do not send us the input file, we cannot really check what is going on.

Thanks for sending the model.

Is the absence of connection between the deck and the piers intentional? This is what is causing the error your report; if you connect the piers to the deck, assuming either full connectivity or instead the presence of isolation/dissipation devices, the error will disappear.

PS: In any case, it is true that the program should not be giving a ‘Range Check Error’ in these situations, since one might want to analyse two or more independent/disconnected structures within the same input file. The forthcoming version of SeismoStruct has already addressed and corrected this minor bug.
