Hello,
I am trying to create a 2-D model of a bridge on Abaqus. My problem is that I want create a connector which would connect the piers with the main and the rear parts of the deck. For instance, I want to create a connector which will connect the left column with the left rear deck and a connector that would connect the left column with the main deck. The problem is that these parts meet in the same point in the model and as a result when I create the wire (that will act as the connector) I cannot define which is the point 1 and the point 2 of the wire.
Is there a way in which I will choose that the node I chose belongs to the left column or the main deck for example?
