RC beam deflection issue

[umut.akparlar]

Hello,

When I want to calculate the deflection of RC beam, robot shows zero for self weight which seems incorrect. I created the DL1 for indicating self weight but when I did not create DL1 for self weight and just press calculate, robot can calculate deflection and creating DL1 as self weight by itself. 

What's wrong with creating DL1 as self weight?

Hi @umut.akparlar 

The model you attached seems to be right but pay attention to display the exact deformation for bars, not the nodal displacement.
