Braces aren't carrying Axial Load
I changed my bracing section to the correct sizing, and lost the axial loading. The original one I had one it was a W360x382, which isn't practical as a bracing, replacing it with 2L64x64x3.2. After reassigning the brace member, it stopped carrying axial loads. How do I fix this and get axial loading back.
The only axial loading that is being carried, is from the dead load case, while little to no loading from the snow, live, wind, seismic, or super dead load case is being carried by the brace.
I've tried running an analysis>check model. all the connections should be good
I've released the fixity on these braces, M2 and M3 released, while the rest is not released.
I've checked that the loads are applied to the building and affect the building, but these forces do not get resisted by the braces in axial loading.
Any ideas??
