Thank you so much!
Hi Kyle Berry,The physical member command should be as follows:DEFINE PMEMBER1 TO 5 PMEMB 1
You may find more information in STAAD.Pro CE Help manual chapter TR.16.2 Physical Members.
Answer Verified By: Kyle Berry
I also have a question on how to add this in the command. And why doesnt it automatically add in the member list?
Since the model was not attached to the question, is hard to tell if this model was generated using the Physical Modeler or not. I remember there was an issue in one of the earlier versions of the software where the Physical Modeler was not writing the physical member information correctly in the command file and seems like this problem is related to that issue. If you are using the latest STAAD.Pro ver 22.05.00.131, I don't think you would have this issue anymore
