Rigid link

HI,

I am a little bit confused about how to use the Rigid links. I tried to follow the Help, but I got confused. I have attached a screen-shot of the place, where I want to use Rigid Links. As you can see in the screen-shot, I want the beam to be connected to the wall with help of Regid Link. I want the beam to be connected as pinned connection, so is it correct to check mark UX, UY, UZ, RX or to just check mark UX, UY, UZ. I have chosen, the wall as Master and beam as slave. As you can see in the screen-shot, the moment is not 0 at the start of the Rigid conncted beam. Futhermore I also get strange moment on the other beam (perpendicular to the Rigid connected beam), which is connected to the same node as Rigid link. The strange moment on the other beam, could it be, because I somehow wrongly defined the Rigid links?

Best Regards

This beam is not released but connected to slab so the moment can appear.

You have to apply release on this beam
