Question
What is the reason for the Offset being released? I applied an Offset, but it does not appear to be applied.
I modeled all members as Center-Top.
Despite this, the shape of the girder appears to be modeled as Center-Center instead of Center-Top.
How can I ensure that all members align with the Center-Top position?
Answer
You cannot apply Beam End Offset simultaneously in a situation where Section Offset is already applied. It is not possible to apply both offsets at the same time.
When a Section Offset is applied and a Beam End Offset is subsequently implemented, this issue can arise.
The Beam End Offset feature cannot be applied simultaneously with Section Offset.
Therefore, in sections where Section Offset is defined, Beam End Offset should be removed, and elements in the rigid zone should be connected using Elastic Link's Rigid Type to substitute for the Beam End Offset feature.
