&lt;p&gt;My structure is simply a box structure but when using wind load generator applied to a group,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the wind load generated in +X and -X as well as +Z and -Z have a discrepancy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It seems that loads are applied properly in all panels,&amp;nbsp;however, there is a&amp;nbsp;mismatch in the resulting total reaction.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/pastedimage1669953239406v2.png" /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/pastedimage1669953246257v3.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By further scrutinity, I found the anomaly to be in the following highlighted members.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When these elements&amp;nbsp;are merged into 1 member, ignoring intermediate nodes, the discrepancy is resolved.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/pastedimage1669953181737v1.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will also upload my staad model, for your reference,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the wind load cases are 30~41&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/pastedimage1669953456484v4.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I appreciate your help, thank you very much.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Application by range was also attempted and the results still have discrepancy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://communities.bentley.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/5074.Staad-Model-Sample-1.STD"&gt;communities.bentley.com/.../5074.Staad-Model-Sample-1.STD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PS. I cannot delete intermediate nodes as in the actual model, secondary/teritary beams are present in the structure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To simplify, those members are deleted in the sample model.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RCDC Failure</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/218550/rcdc-failure</link><pubDate>Tue, 24 Aug 2021 11:23:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:79b006d0-e565-4a02-8084-8a1d9b52f916</guid><dc:creator>rafanan maranea</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;Is there any article that would cite the meanings of the different failures in RCDC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;It is difficult to know which part of the member to adjust since calculation is not provided for failed members.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am having a problem with the printing of my Design Calculation Report,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;when it is already generating the design calculation report an error message&amp;nbsp;pops out. See attached.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/4774.RCDC.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Error Translation:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Microsoft.NET Framework&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;An unhandled exception has occurred in a component of your application.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;If you click Continue, the application ignores this error and tries to continue.&amp;nbsp; Click Exit 1 to exit the application immediately.&amp;nbsp; The item has already been added.&amp;nbsp; Dictionary key 2985 Added key 2985.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;When &amp;quot;continue&amp;quot; is selected it just&amp;nbsp;generates the report forever.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;What should be done? Thank you for your help&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
