Abstract
This note examines the computer modeling of grids and space frames which have joints between members where there are significant offsets. This is commonly done by the inclusion of dummy members of high stiffness. Results are presented for a typical structure using a range of values for this stiffness from which their sensitivity on the chosen properties can be seen.
