[flyboy2160]

good evening analysts,

can anybody tell me if this error message says which beam element (each beam is in its own part) is bad?  thanks.

    Wrong beam element
or illegal orientation

The error message states, "Terminal Error: FEM2ESH#19,
item#2", which suggests part number 19 experiences an error on the second item.  It this item is a line from a beam element part, then I would suggest to display the number 2 axis direction on the beam elements in the FEA Editor to ensure these are not collinear (or close to it).
