Hello, hooo there is a lot of things here.

Be aware, *.agdd format is only for spherical discrete element. It does not work with polyhedral (or other shape) elements. In your case, you should use *.gdd or *.lgdd formats.

BUT, the *.lgdd format do not work in your case. This problem may come if you use custom classes.

So, you need to use *.gdd only... but there is a problem of ElementPair..

To fix your problem, can you try this trick ?

<PlugIn Id="_ConvertBondToElementPair"/>
<PlugIn Id="_BuildElementPairSetFromElementSet"/>
 <PlugIn Id="_Convert" What="ElementPair" To="Beam" YoungModulus="48e4" RadiusRatio="0.1" PoissonRatio="0.3" Set="Soil"/>

(Try to add the plugin "_ConvertBondToElementPair" at the beginning)

Cheers, Damien
