Goodsalt Member Registered: 09/11/07 Posts: 126 Loc: PA, USA	I've defined a +Y restraint for a system which is fairly complex - it's jacketed with static seismic equivalent load cases with displacements at various restraint locations (CNoded of course) to simulate building drift. CEASAR is reporting for at least one of the load cases a positive load (7006 lb.)on a restraint defined as +Y. This seems wrong. Is it?
