Columns

Columns placement

Vertical columns

By default, placed vertical (or vertical) when the function
is selected.

Follow with setting to which Level column to associate
or whether it simply must be set at a fixed height
(Unconnected).

Slightly depending on the type of column that is
selected, allowing for further customization of
properties.

The example shown is related to a concrete column, as
can be seen clearly in the pga. info about reinforcement
– a steel column would have more focus on attachment
in the top and bottom.

Slanted Column

Select this function you should switched to an elevation
view, since slanted pillars are very hard to set correctly
in plan view.

Options bar is controlled now by two clicks – location of
a slanted column.

Properties — for the same column as in the last
example – also look a little different. There is a
possibility of shifting the column at right angles,
vertically or horizontally in relation to the insertion point.
