Hello

I have downloaded frame3dd and openGL and I want to use it. Any clues please. The technical help is not much good but I 'kind of' understand the templates and examples that came with the download. I just need someone to steer me in the right direction.

All tips and examples greatly appreciated.

Regards

Look at the example files that are available here. Start with simple examples and try to decipher each part of the input file. Then try to create your own input file. Good luck!
 
Dear FlashSet

Thanks for the links. I have put together, what I hoped, is a simply supported beam with a UDL of 1kN/m. (attached). I ran Frame3dd and got a result but its wrong but a result all the same.

If you are familiar with Frame3dd, would you look at my input file to see if my mistakes are obvious, please.

Regards
