To model columns for industrial steel structure using TSD
Aim:
- Create column properties for different types of pedestal members and model in the grids created as per the assignment 1
- Create column properties for steel columns and model columns in the grid created as per assignment 1.
- Create beam properties and model primary and secondary beams on the ground floor
PROCEDURE:-
- Open the TEKLA file which was saved with grid in last challenge.
- Define the different levels such as base level,ground level,intermediate level and roof level appropriately according to the plan.
· Create column properties ( Size, height, grade of steel) using properties window. The properties to be created using manage properties for each type of column.
· Select plan view to model the columns.
· Define and review the properties of the column
· Insert columns on grids or construction lines as per the planned general arrangement.
· Model primary and secondary beam using storey level on plan
· Manage properties of beams and assign the properties to each of beams
- After compeleting the design of beams and columns, go to model and select validate option and check the design.
RESULT:-
The columns and beams are successfully created to the Grids.
