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?

I am trying to model a gable roof. I understand that this needs to be accomplished by adjusting the heights of the ridge beam but am having trouble defining two separate slab polygons. I am able to successfully model one half of the gable roof and have…
