Delta X/Delta Y
Columns can be found in any position (angle) in the plan. The program uses the column dimensions automatically regardless of the angle. When the "Draw column axis" option is selected in the Preferences dialog, arrows coming out of the joints of each column appear in the pane. These arrows indicate the x positive direction of the respective column itself. |
Delta X/Delta Y For rectangular columns, X and Y offset is entered. When a positive (+) value is entered for |
X offset, the column moves |

Shear
Determines the horizontal distance between the column top and bottom nodes. A value is entered here to define an inclined column.
Plaster
If plaster will be drawn on the columns, it is marked. If this option is selected, plaster is drawn around the column as much as the value entered in the Plaster Thickness line. The color of the drawn plaster can be adjusted in the Plaster Color line. When other plaster assignable elements such as column walls are combined, plaster combinations are made automatically and excess lines at intersections are cleaned. Since plasters are architectural objects, column plasters are not drawn in Formwork Plan mode.
Plaster thickness, color, line type
Here, –X, + X, -Y and + Y directions should be considered locally with respect to the column. In the Preferences dialog, if the "Draw column axis" option is active, an arrow is drawn from the joint of the column in the plan. This arrow indicates the local + X direction of the corresponding column. Each time, look at the column with the arrowhead to the right. Growth limits should be determined according to these conditions.      |
Upper elevation/Elevation Upper elevation and Elevation parameters are used to shorten or extend the column from the top and bottom. As long as zero is left, column elevation general settings are taken as the floor height given in the diagram. In this case, the column bottom joint is on the floor floor and the upper node is on the floor ceiling. If a positive value is entered in the upper elevation digit, the upper node of the column is extended up to the entered value, if a negative value is entered, the column becomes shorter. If a positive value is entered in the level section, the value entered at the lower end of the column becomes shorter from the bottom. In case of negative value the column gets longer to the bottom. |
