Abaqus warning 1

[Batzo]

Hi
i did a wall section with rebars, but i get this warning:
"For two-dimensional models, if a non-unity thickness is specified for two-dimensional solid elements and these elements are involved in an interaction such as contact, the same thickness should be specified for the out-of-plane thickness of the corresponding surface under *surface interaction."

the model is running but what could be the problem?

the rebars are with interaction to the concrete, and not touching each other

i added pictures of the wall with the rebars and the interaction

thank you

 

[FEA way]

If you specified non-default (other than 1) thickness in solid section definition and you have contact interaction in the model then you should add geometric properties to contact property definition and set the same value as the one specified for section thickness.

hi thank you for answering but i did it right now and it does not help

 

[FEA way]

This is necessary only if you have contact defined in the model (with normal/tangential behavior in interaction property). Otherwise you can ignore this generic warning message.

oh ok, good to know!!
