Tagging Beam Systems

You can tag the beam system with framing tags or with a beam system span tag.

Beam system framing tags Beam system span tags

Framing tags are structural framing tags that, by default, align parallel at the top center of the created beams in the system. You can alter these tag locations using the beam annotation tool. See Beam Annotations Tool.

Beam system span tags are unique to beam systems. This family (Structural Beam System Tag.rfa) is typically located in the following folder:

%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Autodesk\<product name and release>\Libraries\<language and locale>\Annotations\Structural

These tags display as a span arrow perpendicular to the created beams in the system. Their label indicates their structural framing type and their spacing within the beam system (beam type @ spacing).
