Good Afternoon!
I am trying to model a moving load (group of longitudinal skids) on my model.
I have tried using the footprint weight but it would only work for a load condition where DEAD command exists.
I want to try the Skid Loads option in Precede, but it gives me "Not enough members cross.." something like that.
Suppose i have a 20 x 20 m deck which is supported by 4 beams with equal spacing in X and Y direction as well (the spacing is 4 m).
I have tried to input the skid length of 10 m and total width of 6 m, and the number of longitudinal skid of 4. But it didnt work.
Is there any documentation (manual and theory as well) regarding this Skid Loads?
Please kindly help me. Any response would be very appreciated! Thank you so much.
Don't worry. I have just figured it out, the offsets were the problem, so i set the out of plane tolerance to have the same value as the offsets.
Thanks!
