Simulation constraints to allow displacement in positive direction but not negative

I am designing a shelf which will be bolted to the wall. This will have 2 screws and 2 struts to support the shelf. Picture a typical closet self with a particle board top and brackets beneath. How do I tell fusion that the face which is against the wall cannot move in the negative y direction do could move in the positive y. I only see the option to lock that face for both positive and negative directions.

Hi Matt,

 

The closest that I can think of is Prescribed Displacement constraint with a positive distance. Please see attached image. Does this work?

Thanks
