<p>Hi, Abin. Sorry to hear that the problem is still there. Since there is no load in the x and y direction, in theory, we don't need restraints in those directions. However, in 3D FEA, due to numerical errors and approximations, we may end up with small forces in x and y directions. So we need some restraint in x and y as well, without which the structure will not be in equilibrium. On the other hand, if beam theory was used to simulate your problem, we will not need those extra restraints,…</p>

<p>Thank you Mr. Kumar. This thing has not been solved. My only question is why is it not possible for me to restrain this structure in Z direction only? SnS doesn't allow me to do so. </p>

<p>Sorry for not reaching out earlier. I was traveling back then and lost track of it. Let me know if it still hasn't been solved, and we can look into it.</p>
