Configure Precast Structural Floor Assembly Parts

Modify floor part parameters to change the lifter settings for generating slab assemblies.

You change part settings in the Configuration dialog. Click Precast tab Configuration panel (Configuration) and navigate to: Adjust the following slab part parameters as needed.
Name Description
Lifters
Type Specifies the lifting anchor and type for the precast structural floor.
Minimum Distance of Lifter to Slab Edge In Stressing Direction Specifies the minimum distance from the lifter to any edge along the stressing direction of the slab.
Minimum Distance of Lifter to Slab Edge In Shifting Direction Specifies the minimum distance from the lifter to any edge along the shifting direction of the slab.
Distances as Percentage of Slab Dimensions Select to use a percentage of the slab dimensions instead of specific units for the in Stressing Direction and in Shifting direction parameters.
Maximum Weight per Lifter Specifies the rated tensile strength of the lifting anchor.

When you split a structural floor, 4 lifters are added based on this configuration. If the floor weight is higher that the capacity of the 4 lifters, a warning prompts you to change the type of lifters or to manually add additional lifters.
