Modeling and Analyzing Connected Towers in TnxTower ?

I have two towers connected at their legs by angled members at multiple elevations. I'm working on the structural analysis of the combined system. How can I model this in TnxTower? My understanding is that I would need to model each tower separately and then somehow incorporate the reactions from one tower into the other. However, I'm unsure about the process for doing this. Could you guide me on how to approach it? (Using Risa 3D is also an option here.)
