Separate structure

[kyp321]

Hi,

I have two simple frames that i am about to analyze in robot and i was wondering.. could i use just one robot file to perform analysis? i know that i will be getting the separate structure error  but if that is it it shouldnt be a problem. Does anyone know of  any other problems i might get ?

Thanks

Kyp

so in summary it is ok unless dynamic analysis is perfromed ??

My point is that for seismic analysis you may find 'reading' results such as e.g. participation masses for each of the structures more difficult comparing to two separate models.
