I am trying to use the cladding option but there are some points that i didnt understand in the help :
What is the difference between these 3 types of load distribution (if i have uniform load on my floor which type should I use)
The list field displays 3 available types of load distribution based on the load direction:
2) i couldnt ubderstand what's the problem of the truss with cladding (" Use the Do not take truss bar into account option by selecting objects on which loads from a cladding are distributed.")

hey Rafal,
I have a one way deck slab in the X direction,
so what i have done is using clading with the load distribution in the x direction.
but after checking the results i figured out that some trusses have a very low axial forces comparing to others (like bar 268,332,488,479) in my robot file below.

No you did not
Even if you set One-Way-X please check local CS of cladding.
Almost all of beams are not parallel to local X of cladding so they will be loaded
Rafal ,
I have done what you requested, but my question is why on certain truss bars like (268,332) the axial force is very low comparing to others
Thanks again for your help

Your model is inaccurate
1 delete all meshes
2 correct nodes coordinates as shown below:
Nodes 105 106 117 302 306 331 437 438 should have Y=351,38010
Nodes 19 20 56 103 104 116 519to525 should have Y= 338,45950
Nodes 23 24 58 101 102 115 should have Y=311,61050
Nodes 27 28 59 97 98 113 257 263 284 289 298 305 318 452to462 should have Y= 299,69429
Nodes 29 30 33 34 60 61 242 245 247 251 256 262 269 288 293 439to451 should have Y=290,37611
Nodes 331 437 438 should have X =197,37518 Y=351,38009
Node 60 coordinates : X=187,99256 Y=290,37611 Z=21,87500

Hey Rafal,
I am facing the same problem on some beams number(231,213,209,204,199,337,225,345,16,19,189) i am not having bending moment (My) on these beams
I have tried the fix the nodes as you have mentioned before but it didnt work,
i would really appreciate if you can help me also this time

is it better to update it to this version or 2014,
since my company didnt buy yet 2015 version

Your choice but it is always better to use the newer possible version.
If you will use 2014 please update it with the latest SP also.
