Joints between Shells

Grasshopper Karamba3D

Hi, I want to calculate Forces and Moments on connections between shells (precust concrete slabs which are connected using steel plate connectors in order to create a disassemblable floor). Is it possible to do it using the joint components in Karamba?

Hello @theogerg,
in Karamba3D 2.0.0 WIP (see here) one can define line-joints. In addition to this there is a ‘Shell Section’-component for retrieving results on shells along arbitrary sections.

Thanks a lot Clemens, for the reply and the great plugin. Do I have to uninstall the Karamba 3D in order to proceed with installing the 2.0.0?

Hi, you simply need to run the installation and it will update it for you.
