by the way, your error is

(Thread 1) CCFEModelExc: CCPardiso solver error: zero pivot, numerical factorization or iterative refinement problem, (possibly in equation: -3, node: 7677, dof 3) in phase 23.

It can be seen in Message section in ATENA Science.

You can refer to ATENA-Troubleshooting for details:

2.4.6
First of all, look at the model in a step before the message occurs. Investigate anything
unusual - is there a support missing? ...
Typical problem sources are badly supported or wrongly connected structure
(mechanism), an element of [numerically] zero volume (please check the mesh),
problematic material settings (e.g., interface properties, wrong magnitude of elastic
modulus, ...), or similar.

Hi Abdullah,

Sorry for the long reply. The problem is that your model is unstable. You have to define fixed contacts between steel plates and concrete, between precast and cast in place concrete. Alternatively, you can make consistent mesh.

Hi
This seems not an error rather than a header of the output window. Can you give more information or give a link to your model?

what does this error means and how can it be fixed ( Iter Eta Disp.Err Resid.Err Res.Abs.E Energy E. (NR)
