Applying an Analytical View Template for Steel Elements

If you create a new level named, for example, Level 3, you can create a new analytical level view named Level 3 - Analytical. Do this in order to use the analytical view for analysis and design purposes.

The following steps detail the creation of a view template for steel elements.

  1. In the Project Browser, right-click Level 3, and select Duplicate ViewDuplicate.
  2. Select the copy of Level 3, right-click, and click Rename.
  3. Enter Level 3 - Analytical.
  4. Use the following steps only with steel elements:

  5. Select View tabGraphics panelView Templates drop-downApply Template Properties to Current View.
  6. In the Apply View Template dialog, for Names, select Structural Analytical Isolated.

    The Structural Analytical Isolated view template will present structural components in this new analytical plan with only the analytical model displayed.

Note: If the visibility of loads is turned off in the view, apply either the stick or normal analytical view template to the view to cause loads to display.
