Hi, I am trying to implement the jointed material for an underground cavity. I do not understand how the planes of the single planar joint system needs to be specified using the keyword *ORIENTATION. It appears that a local coordinate system of the joint system is specified using the *ORIENTATION keyword, but it is the xy, xy or xz plane of the specified local coordinate system that corresponds to the joint system orientation? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
