Dear All,
Im learner of staad pro, Im analysing mezzanine floor by considering all loads. But when im trying to apply wind load, it is showing some errors... Like floor diaphragm must defined before wind load & then it is show master slave is required.... I do the changes by searching in communities but however im not able to rectify. Now it is showing error in support & spring...
I attached the staad file, can anyone help me out in applying the wind load without error in yz direction only.
Hope I cleared my doubts. Thanks in advance.

The error was due to the fact that support nodes 3 and 7 were specified as slave nodes. I think you intended to specify the diaphragm at the top and in the XZ plane but ended up specifying it in the YZ. I have modified the master slave with node 19 as the master node as it is more central to the diaphragm compared to node 11. A modified file is attached for your reference.
