hallo matteo,

you have compression-radial-structure. the roof-opening ist not tensionring but compressionring, why u try this with spring-particle?

Yep, this is a good one! You're right Frank, the roof opening has got a compression ring (probably I should connect the higher and lower end of each segment also).

I'm pretty new to kangaroo, I've just tried out some example that I've found online... May you tell me which components I should use to analize this kind of structure?

thanks for your help,

Mat

Anyone who could help me on how to analyze and improve this structure please?

Thanks for your attention,

MM
