Hello Prasad,

You are using ACP-Pre to model your beam with shell elements correct? Could you reply with a few screenshots showing your model and the error messages?

You have to use linear elements in WB LS-DYNA. Make sure your mesh Physic Preference is set to "Explicit" and Element Order to "Linear":

This should take take of the element order error message.
