Thickness of extruded element

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I am attempting to modell a circular concrete wet well in robot. I did this by creating a circle object and extruding upwards. I didn't want to use a cylinder as i wanted to attribute soil stiffness parameter to the base and it therefore has to be a different element.

The problem i am having is that robot won't seem to let me assign a thickness to my cylinder walls. Has anyone else had this experience. See attached image.

Thanks

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Please use FE Thickness dialog instead of changing thickness in the Object Inspector:

That's perfect, thanks.

The object inspector staying blank was throwing me off.

Thanks again

Daniel
