How do you understand it? Try telling us how you understand it so we can help you implement it properly in your ETABS model.


For now, see attached. Same applies to shear, moment, torsion, and all other forces.

okay now its more clear for me because i was just thinking about concrete elements so i couldn't understand the idea very well>

Releasing restraints can also in concrete elements as well. Think of a precast T-beam being connected to a cast-in-place column. The T-beam will be simply supported with no moment restraints, so you release all moments and make it pinned.
