Answer:
The problem can be solved using a line release. If you set the zero release stiffness in the x‑direction of the column line, no vertical load should be transferred from the column to the wall.
Column Running Through Wall
I have a roof structure resting on a steel column that runs to the foundations. The column runs through a perimeter wall that supports the false ceiling. A considerable part of the load from the roof is transferred to the wall. I want the steel column to carry all the vertical loads from the roof. How can I do this?
