Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis

[#1]

Hi,

please find enclosed a Robot file plus 2 spreadsheets. We're trying to calculate the joint between bars 2 and 4.

1st problem :

We can't load the values from Robot.

2nd problem :

When we enter the values by hand, the spreadsheet bugs when changing the angle (alpha), and stops calculating.

The file called 33SCHM_TIMB_EC5_009_BUG.xls was created after this bug.

The file called 33SCHM_TIMB_EC5_009.xls was created before it.

Thanks for your help.

We will investigate the import issue you reported (mind that it is required you divide bar 2 into two parts at the location of node 5). For the angle try to use the workaround shown on the attached movie.

If you find your post answered press the Accept as Solution button please. This will help other users to find solutions much faster. Thank you.

Ok for the angle.

We've already tried to divide the bar 2, without success.
