Hello everybody,

I'm just wondering about if it is always Caesar give restraint result at different direction when I have only a +Z support type?


e.g for +Z type support gives negative(-)forces?

Regards and thanks

Hello Tubero Ako,

You could be having an orientation problem.
I think it is normal for a +Z support to have (-) forces.

A +Z restraint means the pipe is free to move in the +Z direction, but it is restained in the -Z direction. Therefore this restraint can only have -Z reaction forces.
