Create Base Plate Connections with a Support Concrete Element

Workflow:

1. Select one of the four connections from the palette:
   
   
   
2. Select the steel element:
   
   
   
3. A query will ask you if you want to add the support concrete element to the connection:

   In the Contextual Menu:

   
   
   

   And in the Command Line:

   
   
   
   • If you choose not to add the concrete element to the connection, the connection will be created without taking it into account:
     
     
     

     In this case, the Code Checking module will have the Concrete class available:

     
     
     
   • If you choose to add the concrete element to the connection, a new input for the connection will be required:
     
     
     

     In this case, the Code Checking module will not have the Concrete class available. It will be set by the concrete element:

     
     
     
     
     
     
4. Press Enter again to create the connection:
   
   
   

   Now the concrete element is part of the connection, just like any other element of the connection.
