Disassemble compound profiles

This tool separates the assembly into single beams. Each beam then gets its own system line. The single axes are overlapped and each beam has an offset value.

Note: Before creating BOMs and drawings compound sections must be separated into single beams otherwise they are treated as one beam and this would result in an incorrect quantity of beams in the BOM.
