About Braces
Braces attach themselves to beams and columns and adjust parametrically to changes in the building design.
Add a Structural Brace
Create braces by sketching a line between two structural elements. For example, braces can appear between a structural column and a structural beam.
Modify a Structural Brace
After adding a brace element, you can modify the brace properties to control how the brace maintains position along a beam.
Brace Instance Properties
Modify brace instance properties to change structural usage, offsets, justification, and more.
Brace Type Properties
Modify brace type properties to change dimension, identity data, and more.
