Hi. The gusset were on the wrong position. It support to be horizontal on the bracing but sometimes it become vertical.

 

Why this happening?

Hi,

 

Gusset plates always go on the WEB of the secondary member. You will not get these joints to put the plate on the flange of a T section.

Hi @crydee-AG1 , 

It occur on certain member. On some area, I can create the gusset on top of the secondary T member (on top flange) without having this issue. How come for this one got error? Already installed hotfix but it's not working

I've tested the model already. The issue is just because of the secondary beam is not perpendicular diagonal. 

 

That has solved the case.
