SOFiSTiK Forum

Hi,



I would like to ask how can I create a beam element with offset nodes in Sofistik? I've tried to use the command BEAM in SOFINMSHA with parameters XA, YA, ZA/XE,YE,ZE but it had no effect on the result. The nodes stay always on the centroid-line of beam. I also tried to use NODE with node constrains, but it run unstable when I tried to assign a referent node with other constrains (support).



Has anyone an idee about that?
