SAP 2000 Modelling - need help

SAP 2000 Modelling - need help

(OP)
I am trying to model a solid round bar in sap 2000 using solid elements. How do i create this model?

I created a circular shell object with cylindrical gridlines but sap wont let me extrude this. I can only extrude the outer layers.


I also tried creating a cylinder with autocad meshed polylines and importing but it only lets me import cubes or wedges as solids.

Help is much appreciated.

This is so easy in ABAQUS why does it seem tricky in Sap?
