Meaning: The brace must be related (using a point-on relationship) to a split connection or an end-joint of a member; however, the end of the brace that is connected could not be determined. This is an internal software failure where the relationships for the vertical corner brace were not established correctly.

Recovery:

  1. Open the Structure task.

  2. Click Select .

  3. Set the Locate Filter to Frame Connections.

  4. Select the frame connection in error.

  5. Select By Rule from the Connection box on the ribbon.

  6. Redefine the end location of the brace by selecting the frame connection of the supporting beam.
