Dear freinds,

I am going to mesh a 3D model with ICEM. when I use only tetra elements I have no problem and Mesh checking process passes well.
But as soon as I create a layer of prism elements on walls, checking process says there are some elements with orientation problem. there are only 3-4 elements with this issue but I don't know how to fix them.
As it is shown in the picture they seem to be useless. Any way I can not simply delete them, as their faces remains.
Please help...
