There is no limit, other than the limitations of your computer. If you find the program performance too slow, consider any of the following to help: • increase the mesh size to reduce the numebr of elements • delete an imported drawing file that is no longer needed • reduce the number of load cases and/or load combinations • reduce the number of design strips or increase the spacing of the design strip cross sections.
