Problem Description

When generating design strips, one of the following errors below is displayed. The errors prevent the analysis from completing.

1. APolyLine2D::ratio()

2. ABoundaryShape2D::New -- Invalid Polygon

Solution

Both errors are associated with the Critical Section Support Ratio parameter. One workaround is to uncheck the box for "Detect Supports and Edges Automatically" which disables that option. 

The APolyLine2D::ratio() error occurs when both ends of a span segments are within a support shape. This most often occurs when a span segment is modeled parallel to a wall and one of the span segments is snapped just inside the wall end (see first image below) or at a perimeter columns where the column face coincides with the slab edge and a short span segment is modeled from the column centerline to the slab edge (see second image below).

The ABoundaryShape2D::New -- Invalid Polygon error is related to geometry/meshing problems. In most cases, using a slightly smaller mesh size will eliminate the error.
