Scaffold Analysis

This function has two purposes:
1. Calculating the weight force to all base plates.
2. Creating analytical lines for further analysis. Either in Revit or for import to RSTAB, ROBOT or
other analysis software.

Analysis is only done for elements which is visible in view. In large models it is recommended to
separate in multiple views. In this way you can avoid running analysis for the whole model when it is
not needed. The following categories must be visible in view: Generic Models, Structural Columns,
Structural Framings, Structural Foundations, Special Equipment. If any of these categories are not
visible, you are prompted to switch them on. It is recommended to use the view template Weight
Analyze which is stored in the NTI SCAFFPLANNER template.

Weight Force

Weight loads are normally added to the upper decks when building the scaffolds. If you have edited
the scaffolds you should control these weight loads before running the calculations. You can edit the
width (1), length (2) and weight force (3) in properties. The location is not crucial to be very accurate.
The analyze will search for the nearest standard of each corner and add ¼ of the total weight to each
base plate.
