Hello

Could you please upload (or via pm) the reduced SOFiSTiK and rhino (grasshopper) files?
Without the files and a more detailed description I can not give you a solution :wink: .

So we have checked the cross section and the problem is that the algorithm of the function “ReadSection” within grasshopper is not programmed for cross sections with multiple identical cross section point identifier.

This has the effect that only one of the four segments is generated within grasshopper.

So I am sorry to tell you that this kind of cross section is not supported from the function “ReadSection” at the moment. The responsible developer is aware of this problem and there may be a solution for this behaviour in the future.

Thank you for letting us know about this flaw in the code :wink: .
