I am working on rock, it has one joint system which is horizotnal. I used these keywords to define the material properties:-
*Material, Name=material1
*Elastic
0.3E6,.2
*Jointed material, joint direction=joint1
45,22.5,30
*Orientation, Name =joint1
1,0,0,0,1,0

but i got an error.

in keyword *ORIENTATION, file "Job-1.inp", line 1948: The keyword is misplaced. It can be suboption for the following keyword(s)/level(s): assembly, instance, part

I studied a slope stability tutorial in abaqus, i guess i did exactly as the tutorial.

Could you please tell me what is wrong?
Thanks.
