Hello Francesco,

at the moment (Karamba3d 1.3.0) I recommend the solution you describe above.

The springs should not be too stiff, since this can make the resulting stiffness matrix ill-conditioned and leads to increased numerical inaccuracies.

In case you place a very stiff spring in the same position as a beam the stresses in the latter will decrease but this will cause no problems.

Best,

Clemens
