Right now I have the contact surfaces set up so that the whole pin is a contact surface for each of the 3 pin-hole sections. Would it be better to partition the pin at each splice and then just designate that contact surface as the master/slave surface?

I'm having some trouble modeling a contact situation using ABAQUS 6.3.5/CAE. The problem is (3) wood 2x4s spliced together by 2 pins..as shown (poorly) below..
