Beam - rectangular section

[mikymike]

Hi,
I am trying to insert "Beam" elements having rectangular sections (thicknes=0.2mm and height=10mm) using "Z section" which seems the most appropriate one. I receive the following error code.

-------------------------------------------------------
F A T A L E R R O R
FATAL ERROR while reading file run.mrs at line 33
Section O m STEEL t 0.2 mm h 10 mm w 10 mm
^
* * * Invalid keyword in bmL:OSection:read * * *
-------------------------------------------------------

Maybe the error cause may be due to:
- For the "Tubular section" is associated the "Section O .." command line;
- For the "Z section", in the manual, there is the same "Section O.." command line.

Since I thought was a transcription mistake in the manual, I have even tried to replace the "Section O .." command with "Section Z .." but does not work.


Thank you,
Best Michele A.
