Hello Everyone.
I create a dummy beam with density=0 and E=0 (Figure.1) then I assign the beam (Figure.2) then Staad Error occurs( ***ERROR*** MATERIAL NAME MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY BLANK SPACE)(Figure.3), What is the solution?
Thank you a lot.
If you use a very soft material ( low E) or a very stiff material ( high E) you are going to get the warnings. These are aimed at making the user aware that abnormally low (or high) values of material stiffness has been used. If such use is intentional, then you may simply ignore the warnings.

Does this warning affect me? (** WARNING ** A SOFT MATERIAL WITH (1.0 / 2.172E+08) TIMES THE STIFFNESS OF)
If the intention is to use a dummy beam with negligible stiffness, use a small non zero value as opposed to 0.
This error occurs when I assume E=0 (**ERROR** ELASTIC MODULUS (E) NOT ENTERED FOR MEMBER/ELEMENT/SOLID NO. 34). What is the solution?
