Ask for help - define Connector
(OP)
Hi,
I'm trying to modelling the bond-slip effect between concrete and steel using translator-type connector.
I understand that I need to define a "wire" on the inter surface between concrete and steel, and assign the translator-type section to the wire.

But later on when I submitted the job, it said that the regions of concrete and steel are not connect.
Should I also tie the wire to the concrete part and steel part? And how?
Or should the wire line be perpendicular to the interface?
Thanks in advance for any hint.
Best regards,
wxmxavier

For that should I create a cap between the concrete and the steel so as to set vertical lines in between?
