Beam

Beam elements are supported in the following applications: Revit, Tekla, RAM, SAP, Grasshopper, Etabs, Excel.

Create Beam - Create a beam element by a profile and curve

  • Profile - profile of the beam

  • Curve - curve representing the centerline of the beam

  • Name - name of the element

  • Rotation - rotation about the beam's centerline axis (degrees). The rotation is performed counterclockwise

  • Z Offset - eccentricity of the profile relative its local Z axis (vertical if beam is parallel with global XY plane)

  • Y Offset - eccentricity of the profile relative its local Y axis (left hand side if beam hasn't been rotated)

  • Start Extension - extension of the beam's start node

  • End Extension - extension of the beam's end node

  • Justification Z - right click on this input to see options or connect the Z Justification component

  • Justification Y - right click on this input to see options or connect the Y Justification component

  • Material - material the element should consist of

  • IsBrace - If set to true, a Brace element will be created

  • Attributes - attributes to attach to the element. Use the Konstru Attribute component.

Get Beam - Get a beam element from a Konstru model
