Framing Element Geometry Manipulation
Adjust how framing element geometry justifies and offsets from one another.
Topics in this section
- About Bounding Boxes
The bounding box is an invisible 3D rectangular space that contains all model elements, annotation elements, and datum elements defined in a family-based element. - Family Origin and Geometry Center of Steel Framing Elements
In some cases, the family origin of a structural framing element may not align with center of the bounding box of the element. - Extend a Beam or Brace End from its Handle
The start and end extension parameters increase or decrease the length of geometry from the beam handle of a beam end that does not frame into a join. - About Adjusting the Beam Elevation at a Column Join
Define how a beam parametrically repositions vertically when a joined column is resized. - About Beam and Brace Geometry Manipulation
Adjust the physical location of a beam or brace without changing the position of the location line of the element. - About Structural Framing Orientation
Reverse the orientation of structural framing elements. - About Framing Element Justification
Justification parameters reposition beam and brace geometry in relation to the location line. - About Framing Element Offset
Offset value parameters reposition beam and brace geometry to a distance from its location line.
