have a monorail design
however need a significant sized stub shaft of about 3 m long.
allowing for off vertical loading may put extra bending moment on the connections of this shaft.
any other alarms that i should be considering outside of this fact?

Thanks bookowski, i shall look into that. As you say asking people is great and I am fortunate to have people ask.
msquared48 thanks for your helpful insight although i'm after something concrete to reference to confirm things like gut feel and common sense.
Using a program called Microstran, but the information I'm after doesn't have to be software specific. Even a reference to structural modelling would be appreciated, one with a practical sense, I've seen a few which are full of (albeit important i'm sure) complex theory with no real world sense.
Hello
I've started to use structural engineering program and would really appreciate some practical examples on the use of offsets, member releases etc. when modelling real world structures.
Does any one know of any good resources which shows examples of structures, and how they are in turn...
