Hello fellow engineers,
I am working on a simple script to create a slab from 3D elements, here is my code:

import numpy as np
import os

Hello, I have the following code:
That exact sections where I have questions is here:
ret = SapModel.File.NewSolidBlock(8, 8, 4,"" ,nombre_prop_solido, 4, 4, 2)
If I set the units to inches:
SapModel.SetPresentUnits(1)
Everything is normal and work as expected, but if I use anything but...
Greeting,
What Etabs does to a slab shell element to make it "ribbed" ?
I found an article that claims that a ribbed shell elements mimics the orthotropic stiffness of the element if you select this type, but not idea what are the exact modifiers values
I should be able to make a simple slab...
Greeting fellows engineers, I am making a thesis about slab flexibility and so slab rigidity is an important topic to me.
I want to know what exactly does Etabs to shell element when I select the type as "ribbed". The manuals are very blurry in this topic to say at best.
I found an article...
Hello everyone:
I am having issues at understand why Etabs is assining masses in reaction nodes, it doesnt make any sense, I lumped masses at story levels, but Etabs doing at base level (reactions) is just wonkers. Any way to undo that behavior...
