DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STRUCTURAL BARS AND BEAM?

[Pousin1970]

In there any difference between bars and beam in RSA?. Are they computed in a different way by RSA?

In Robot there is no distinction between beam and bar elements. You can use a bar element (6 d.ofs in each of its nodes) and a truss element (3 d.o.fs in each of its node).
