This tool allows copying an element from an object to another. In other words, an object gets copied from one local system of coordinates to another with keeping respect to the distances on all axes. Before initiating the copying procedure, select the required object.
Leave on the view only columns and delete other object types.
Create a beam by aligning it at the 1-axis, between the axes B and C. (Refer to the below picture). By applying the “Copy Special- Linear” tool, create three vertical equidistant (2000mm) copies of the beam.
Select all the beams and copy them from a column to another. Follow the
The algorithm for using the “ Copy Special- To another object” tool is as follows:
Let’s create beams along the rotund part of the building.
By using the “Copy Special- Linear” tool, create three vertical
Select all the beams created, enable the “Copy Special - To another object” tool, and copy them to other columns located at the rotund part of the building.
Proceed the same way for the handed part of the building.
Create beams along the E-axis (between the axes 1 and 2) and along all
As a result, you should get a structure similar to the one presented below.
Save the model. We will be using it in our following examples.
