Deflection problem RSA 2015

[Engineer3636]

Hi,

I have recently updated to RSA2015 on your recommendation. I have only been using it but there seems to be a problem. I have set the deflection limits in member definition which is based on the local bar deflection Y axis. When I go to design it is giving me the result in the z axis. Am I reading this correct? 

I have tried to show the problem below. and attached the model for your review.

Thanks

This is because your model is a 2D frame so you have only horizontal and vertical displacement possible. The vertical is always assumed as z regardless of the bar rotation. Try to change the model type to 3D frame (Geometry > Structure type).
