Description

This tool allows you to build structural elements such as columns or beams, by specifying their width, length and height, or basing them on a 2D profile.

The above image shows a column based on a 2D base profile, a column and a beam based on no profile (defined by their height, length and width dimensions) and a metallic profile based on a 2D contour (face, wire or sketch)

Usage

  • Select a 2D shape (draft object, face or sketch) (optional)
  • Press the Arch Structure button
  • Adjust the desired properties
