For two planes of symmetry (TYP = 20), the planes of symmetry are defined normal to both the first and second vectors as shown below. Note that the second grid does not have to be in the plane defined by the first vector, OptiStruct will calculate the second vector by projecting the second grid (or vector) onto the plane defined by the first vector.
