It is hard to tell what is wrong without seeing your model. Please send it to our support email, cervenka at cervenka dot cz

Nevertheless, in my opinion inclined support is not a way to reach a constant horizontal-vertical force ratio when using nonlinear analysis. I think you will need to use force loading in this case.

I am trying to put a inclined support in my corbels in order consider a ratio between the horizontal and vertical reactions equal to 0.2. I kept the dir X' free and I fixed the dir. Y' and I considered an angle of 191.31o. I already tried to consider several values for the angle, and the reactions (or by the monitoring points or seeing by each load step (vectors)) are equal to zero. The program is running all the load steps, but the reactions are null. The only case that the reaction is different of zero is when I consider the angle equal to zero (vertical reaction). Why this is happening and how I solve this problem? My Atena 2D version is 3.
Thanks,
Rejane.
