Hello

I've modeled a buried pipeline which bends are 30D(30 times the diameter) with 17.5º and 22.5º,but when I converted the job into a buried file, I got problems with the bend angles and warnings messages appeared as following:

Quote:
Bend angle on element 32 to 33 is 3.5 deg; it must be between 5.00 and 95.00 deg
.

The question here is: Why could be happened this? If the size of elements in the mesh is automatically done by Caesar.

I run the example in chapter 11 where bend are 90º and long radius and nothing happened like this.

Please need help

Go to configuration setup / geometry directive/ change minimum allowable bend angle from 5 to 1.
