Hi, I am relative new to Autodesk RSA. I am trying to import my own section which I have drawn in AutoCAD and then importing it as DXF to create in Robot. For some reason when I try calculating section results it gets so far and crashes. Can someone take a look and see what they think. I do the followin steps:
I have attached the section I am trying to input. Please note openings.
Thanks

What about simplifying section? = reducing number of arcs?
Do you thing having "thread" on it is important?

Which robot version do you use?
Standard properties + Ix is claculated for your section without any problems on 2013+SP4 + HF5
I agree that the threads are need in the section. I am using 2012 does that make a significant difference? What does the SP4 and HF5 mean?
Thanks

Seems so
What does the SP4 and HF5 mean?
Service Pack 4 and HotFix 5
I assume I have to install RSA 2013 and then download and install the SP4+HF5.
Was there a SP3 etc? Does it need to be downloaded aswell or is this including in the SP4+HF5
Thanks Again.
SP4 contains older service packs (1,2,3). So install SP4 + HF5.
