I am trying to do it with just one bar element using symmetry at the top vertex. The pinned support is a remote displacement which only allows rotation at the Z-axis. I&#8217;m guessing the symmetry is considering the joint bonded, though I&#8217;d like it to allow rotation like the pin. Is this possible? In the current configuration it looks like the resultant force compressing in the X direction gets extremely high.
