It looks like the elements (beams) have been deleted. 

If you select a joint that was associated with that beam and then right click, do you get the option to select the Advance Joint Properties?

Kind Regards

Hi Chris,
if i select a joint, i don't have a Advance Joint Properties but only Advance Properties....

I've never deleted the beams in my model.... i don't understand this!

[CHRIS_ASDL]

Hi,

If that is the case then I am certain that the elements no longer exist. If a beam is deleted then all the joints associated with this loose all there intelligence.

Do you have a .bak file you could recover?

Kind regards

hi, in recover file .bak.... there is the same problem :'(

Is there a reason why this is happening?

[CHRIS_ASDL · Accepted solution]

They must of disappeared before the .bak file was created!

Have a look in the automatic save file location. You might get lucky and find an earlier file that you can recover. Search for SV$ files and rename it to .dwg

If not then you will have to remodel the beams again.

Great shot!
Backup files found! Only 2-3 joints are missing but the big beams are present !!!

Thanks a lot Chris! When I go to italy I have a beer .... or a pasta dish! 🙂
