This combination connection is a column-beam connection. After the column and beam are defined;
With quick drawing mode turned on;
From the Steel Connection menu, click the Single Shear Plate Joint rowConnection icon.
In 3D perspective view, move the mouse pointer closer to the element, close to the support
After this process, the virtual image of the combination connection will appear.
If the combination connection is suitable, create the combination connection by clicking the left mouse button.
The combination connection will occur with default settings.
Quick drawing mode is off;
From the Steel Connection menu, click the Single Shear Plate Joint rowConnection icon.
Click the column then the beam before the 3D perspective view.
The combination connection will occur with default settings.
