I am having trouble connecting a shell-element to a rectangular beam. Is there a proper way of doing this? I tried to specify the coupling features, but it didn’t work. Do I have to specify the connection somehow to make it work?
Hey Gunnar,
Could you provide your file? The connection should be detected automatically. Internally, the intersection function of Rhino is used. So you could also test this by looking at the result of the Brep-Curve intersection component. If this also fails, you may find a solution by remodeling it. But I can also have a look at it.
HI Anna, I am having issue of connecting shell element together, the Analysis model can not automatically detect the connection. What should I do? (i am using Brep | plane to construct them). they should be connect together.
you should check if the GH Brep Brep intersection finds an intersection curve.
You can also change the tolerance that is used for the intersection, either in the Rhino model or the Analysis model component.
Hi Anna. It did find the curve, but it not garanteed to find the connection point. I am wondering is there a way for me to forced connection? like i use the connecting point on two brep, then add to sup? throught this way, it is giving me sphere like connecting part, not square. How do i do it?
