isolated node cannot be found and calculation warnings and errors

Greetings,

 

I am new to Robot Structural Analysis and i have been modelling a building. When i verify it, I get a warning of an isolated node. See the attached picture. I have tried following advice in these links: how to remove isolated nodes, with no success.

 

When i proceed to calculation, i get the isolated nodes and "linear load has not been applied to a panel," as well as the error, "the element is defined outside the geometric limits of the assigned story. See the attached photo.

 

I don't understand why the other warnings were not picked up during verification. I also don't know where I am making mistakes in modelling the structure. I have attached the file here as well.

 

Please help

Hi @nkosana.ndlovu

You can notice that your model is having alot of inaccuracies, remove the meshing and the cladding and make the nodes visible so you can fix these inaccuracies.

Hi @nkosana.ndlovu

 

Try to define (more) structural axis along the walls and in the planes of the columns and then use Edit > Detailed Correct options with the adjustment to them with precision set as e.g. 0.1 m.
