Hello,
I want to make a model with two columns connected to diagonals in the height, like a built up column but with pinned connections between the columns and the diagonals. I have the different parts in my model but i dont know which is the appropriate constraint to join them. Maybe I must have reference point which is tied to both members but the activated DOFs for the diagonal to be only the translational ones. I want something else because this one does not work
Thank you in advance.....I am looking forward to your advice.
