Solving Individual Point Loads - Is Kangaroo my best bet?

Hi all,

I’m trying to solve for loads at individual hanging points for an object with 4 irregular non-vertical hanging cables attached to it at different points. I have the weight of the actual object, (shown below by the red mesh) which is 398 lbs. and need to know generally how that would be distributed across the 4 teal points.

I had begun looking at this in Kangaroo but have an admittedly limited knowledge of it, would that be the best plugin to work with to solve this? Any and all help is appreciated! Cheers.

This topic sounds like a similar situation:

If you need hanger reactions, this may more be a scenario for Karamba.

in order to do some calculations it might be relevant to know exactly where the center of mass of the suspended piece is, not just its weight

on a side note, 398 lbs looks enough to kill me if that piece happens to fall on my head after some wrong guesswork I did on a forum :smiley: so I would get in touch with a Professional (with capital P)
