Error: Attempted to read or write protected memory when calculating the reinforcement

During the reinforcement calculation, you get the error:

[NL]: Poging tot het lezen of schrijven van beveiligd geheugen. Dit duidt er vaak op dat ander geheugen is beschadigd bij Borland.Delphi.TObjectHelper.Dispatch(…)

[FR]: Tentative de lecture ou d’écriture de mémoire protégée. Cela indique souvent qu’une autre mémoire est endommagée at Borland.Delphi.TObjectHelper.Dispatch(…)

[ES]: Intento de leer o escribir en la memoria protegida. A menudo, esto indica que hay otra memoria at Borland.Delphi.TObjectHelper.Dispatch(…)

Solution

• Usually Diamonds has crashed, it is stuck. Close Diamonds using the Task Manager.
• At the moment it is unclear to what is causing this issue, because our developpers cannot reproduce it. But here are some things you could try:
  • Reset the Diamonds preferences.
  • Save the model on a local disk before you open it. Saving over network is always slower.
  • When the elastic analysis has finished, save the model. Then calculate the reinforcement.
  • Select for example 1/2 of the model and calculate the reinforcement only for that part. Save the model and set the calculated elements invisible .
    Select the remaining 1/2 of the model and calculate the reinforcement only for that part.
