Creating Scaffolding in Stepped Structures

With the Scaffolding Macro command, scaffoldings are gradually created on the facades in the structural project, where there is a elevation difference.

Usage Steps

  • For the first level scaffolding, proceed to the story plan where the scaffolding will sit.

  • Click the Scaffolding Macro command.

  • Create the starting point of the scaffolding by clicking with the left mouse button.

  • In the window that opens, “The project will be converted to a scaffolding specific format. Do you want to continue?” Close the warning by clicking the Yes button.

  • After saving the project, a warning dialog will open showing the name given to your scaffolding project and the path to the folder it is in.

  • Close the warning dialog by clicking the OK button.

  • You can change the layout direction of the scaffolding by pressing the spacebar.

  • Determine the end point of the scaffolding and click the left mouse button.

  • The scaffolding settings dialog will open.

  • Enter your first level height into the scaffolding height. The program will calculate story number based on your partition height and will revise the height value you entered.

  • In the settings dialog, set the properties of the scaffolding such as element sections, anchor points, brace positions and click the OK button.

  • Your scaffold will be created.

  • For the second level scaffolding, proceed to the story plan where the scaffolding will sit.

  • Create the starting point of the scaffolding by clicking with the left mouse button.

  • Determine the end point of the scaffolding and click the left mouse button.

  • The scaffolding settings dialog will open.

  • Enter your second level height in the scaffolding height. The program will calculate your story number based on your partition height and will revise the height value you entered.

  • In the settings dialog, set the properties of the scaffolding such as element sections, anchor points, brace positions and click the OK button.

  • Your scaffolding will be created.

  • Your stepped scaffolding is complete.
