And this video, you will learn how to draw columns and she warns, I will start in the planned view
and the model that you can see two sections, one for Steve and one for concrete.
I will choose concrete columns command.
Once you choose it, you can see an information and they are on top of the working area and the properties
window, you can define the base level and the top level of the column as default is from base to room.
Also, you can change the characteristic of the element.
The type of the concrete I'm choosing see thirty, thirty seven, four columns and she was.
You may assign the color for gravity only by enabling the gravity only checkbox, also enabling the
ultra designed checkbox to let the program design it.
Also, the auto alignment checkbook's.
I'm choosing Section 400 by 400 for the Internet columns.
To draw it, you can just make a snap point and the great or you can draw a rectangular to draw multiple.
I will define a new section from the properties window, choose a new section and insert the new dimension
250 millimeter by 500 millimeter for the external columns, click OK.
And though the columns and the same technique.
I will define another section five hundred by two hundred fifty for this side to give it the right rotation
angle to modify an existing element.
Just select the element or select multiple and go to the properties window.
And there you can change the section by defining a new one.
You can also notice how the auto alignment positioned the columns in the right location.
For example, the school column is now in the bottom and left alignment's, it can be modified from
the property's window.
You can put it center if you want the insertion point to be in the center of the column.
For now, I will reposition at the bottom and lift the alignment.
You can also review the columns and the 3D view.
To draw the cold, I will draw first a construction line, I will use the parallel command with an offset
of two meters with the same technique of drawing a great line press F two to enter a specific value
them then specify the start and the end point.
Press escape to exit the command.
Now, to draw the sheer wall, I will choose my wall from the marble step and the property's window,
I will keep the base level and the top level is the roof.
You may change the world support if you want.
I would assume the thickness of the wall, 250 millimeters.
And the concrete cover is 30 millimeters, take the first point and the second point.
You can press F2 to enter the exact location.
And now it's ready and you can see it in the 3D view.
DSD defines support for any vertical elements which you can modify it from the properties window.
Now the vertical elements are ready, but before I continue and for more stability reasons, I will
replace two columns with a sheet wall on the long dimension of the building in a way that increases
the total rigidity of the building.
When you delete multiple, Tekla gives you a window to choose the entity that to be deleted.
I will delete the columns with its supports.
I will draw construction lines with an offset one meter and each side.
And so I can draw a sheer wall with the length of two meters.
I will assume the thickness of the wall, 250 millimeters and I will modify the alignment from middle
to back.
Notice how the back and forth alignment depends on the orientation of drawing, so I draw the left wall
upward and the right wall downward.
I will assign effects to port for the sheer walls from the properties window.
And now our vertical elements are already.
Gravity only seconds to be designed only for gravity and seismic combinations without the lateral loads.
I will keep my elements in the auto design and auto alignment mode.
Make sure to check other properties such as releases, concrete cover and reinforcement time.
I will choose Section 400 by 400 millimeters square for the internal columns.
If it is not in the sections menu, you may define new section, then click on the intersection point
or you may draw rectangular to draw multiple.
