Hi!

I need your help, I am designing a temporany unanchored structure in SAP 2000. [EDIT: like the one in the attachment]
I need to set the supports in order to be able to move upward but not downward, and have friction coefficient for horizontal movement.
How can I do?

Thanks for the help.

Luca
