@Damn Thank you very much for the explanation and the file.
I’ve been watching videos and trying to simulate a simple glulam beam, but so far, I keep getting errors and I’m unable to run the simulation. When I opened your file, I went through each step and understood it, but when I tried to start from scratch, something went wrong again.
So, I decided to take your script, erase the solid part, and focus only on the shell part. I replaced the material values and also updated the section in the keywords, but I can’t delete the parts that I don’t need.
Ill paste here part of the coding, as you may see there are parts of code that I don’t need but I cant erase.

Could you provide guidance on how to remove those unnecessary parts or correct what might be causing the issue?
