This page is devoted to frequently asked questions (FAQ) related to solver.
On this page:
Why am I receiving different warning messages for the standard and advanced solvers?
Answer: Since the standard and advanced solvers use different algorithms, their results may be slightly different. This difference is primarily attributed to numerical reasons, which may be influenced by various factors, including the sequence in which equations are solved. As a result, if numerical problems occur near the threshold of detection, they can only be reported by one solver.
Can I run models stored on the network instead of those stored locally?
Answer: For response, please see the Running models stored on the network article.
Are there separate SAP2000 installations for 32-bit and 64-bit machines?
Answer: For SAP2000 V18.0.0 and later and CSiBridge V18.0.0 and later, there is a separate installer for the 32-bit and 64-bit version. For the previous versions, a single installer installed both analysis engines on every computer. The decision as to which version to call is made at the time of analysis according to the operating system and user preference.
