Best way to setup this strut and tie model in Robot?

I have this structure with constant thickness but is continous to the left and right, so there will be 4 reactions forces at the 4 corners. I cannot get the forces to zero out at the purple circle, I believe this is a stable but indeterminate structure. How could I best go about solving this in Robot? Should I use a specific member type?
