(OP)
Hello!

I've recently had to start using ANSYS13 (yes, a bit late perhaps..  but I'm stubborn) and I'm trying to figure out how they want me to use link180: CRSI (concrete reinforcing) Code Issues Links instead of LINK10 as I used to in ANSYS11.

I've both tried to define the third realconstant and modified if after creation. Neither gives any results. My link180: CRSI (concrete reinforcing) Code Issues Links elements still act as beams (i.e. the element still transfers loads when a tensile force is applied on it).

Can anyone please explain this to me? I've googled and tried to find any explanation as to why the elements behave like this but can't.
