Hello,

I'm calculating an existant installation with many spring supports my probleme is that I have some doubt obout my spring support model:
in the spring support data sheet there is:
Stiffness 166.3 N/mm and max vertical displacement is 2 mm (down)

My vertical Axis is Z,

in my model I puted on the concidered node +Z with 1663 N/Cm stif
and 2 mm gap but in the results I got more then -8.568 mm displacement on the same node.
Normally it must not pass the 2 mm gap that I introduced in the restraint!!!!!
Can someone tell me where is my mistake?

Regards,
