Hello All,
I am a new user to Simulation. I am trying to study a storage rack used in a warehouse.
Initial I used beam analysis to represent the Racking, but have heard issues with mixing mesh...and I was pointed in the direction of representing the racks as surfaces.
After creating all the surfaces (midsurfaces and adding thickness to those parts in simulation), i cannot get the surfaces of the uprights to mesh with the cross supports. There is a gap between these surfaces, so this might be an issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Best Regards,
John

To fix the issue, I had to extend the surfaces of the cross supports to contact the mating surface.
