Hello, I`m using sap for first time, i`m looking to do a linear static analysis of a steel frame subjected to wind and dead load. Ive done the model, but looks like it must be wrong as i get an error saying: " unable to write constraint". Can you please tell me where i have made a mistake?
Thanks you
 
Hello .. you should mark joints only of frames and then assign > joints > restraint > ( fixed or hinged ) .. how are u put wind loads on frame ??
