Details of Functions
Create Tab
Draw
| Info |
|---|
Creates a part by drawing the shape of a concrete beam member. |
Line(2 points) : Input Select two points to create a line.
Arc(2 points + Angle) : Creates an arc using two points and a center angle.
Arc(2 points + Radius) : Creates an arc using two points and a radius.
Arc(Three points) : Creates an arc using three points.
Arc(Tangent) : Creates an arc in the direction of contact with a 1D object (Line, Arc).
Spline(Interpolation) : Input a number of points on the spline and create a curve using a separate polynomial for each section.
Spline(Control Point) : Creates a curve using a separate polynomial for each section by inputting the spline's starting point, control point, and endpoint.
Semi-Ellipse : Creates a semi-ellipse by inputting the center of the ellipse, the point along the major axis, and the point along the minor axis.
By Select : Creates a concrete beam member by selecting Line on the plan drawing.
Option
| Info |
|---|
Sets whether to split Concrete beam that is to be created when the user uses the ‘By Select’ function of ‘Draw’ to select multiple line objects. |
By Select : Creates one continuous Poly beam for all selected line objects.
By Edge : Creates one Concrete beam per selected line object.
Preview level
| Info |
|---|
Select the preview exposure level when the draw of the member is not completewhile creating it. |
Member With Solid : This is the preview shape. It shows both the center line of the member and its solid shape.
Member only : Shows only the center line of the member as the preview shape.

Property Tab > 2nd sub tab
Tapered member 옵션
| Info |
|---|
Sets whether a cross section member is created. |
Section
| Info |
|---|
Sets Set the type of section shape and inputs enter section dimensions. The types of sectional shapes provided are shown below. Solid rectangle, Solid round, Octagon, Solid octagon, Track, Solid track, Half track |
Local axis
| Info |
|---|
Sets the section placement position and orientation of the section based on the centerline of the member. |
Cardinal point : Set the position on the section corresponding to the centerline of the member. The section is positioned so that the placement of the section you have set matches the location of the centerline of the member.
Beta angle : Input Enter the rotation angle of the section. Right-hand rule is applied to the Local x-axis of the member (start → end).
Additional offset
| Info |
|---|
Additional Enter additional offset distance from the cardinal point position to the local y, z direction Is necessary to be inputted. |
Offset-y : Input Enter the additional separation distance in the direction of the Local y.
Offset-z : Input Enter the additional separation distance in the direction of the Local z.
Shape variation
Displayed when Tapered member is checked ON
| Info |
|---|
Define the connection geometry between the start and the end section. |
Curve order-y : Sets the curve order for the change of shape in the direction of the Local y-axis.
Curve order-z : Sets the curve order for the change of shape in the direction of the Local z-axis.
Property Tab > 3rd sub tab

Boundary condition
| Info |
|---|
This sets the boundary condition at the beginning and end of the Geometry. |
