Do you know how to solve space frame for temperature loading

[Slinven]

Hi all,

On official site there is an example manual, which shows how to do the thermal problem analysis but it's mostly for planar problems not for space frame element.

Any entry-point on that will be appreciated.

Currently, we do not include the thermal effect in the material models for frames.  The linear elastic models do have options for thermal effects, however, to specify different types of thermal loading one may need to solve an auxiliary problem and transform to beam cross-sections.

What type of problem were you hoping to solve?
