2.13.6 The “Measure -Arc” tool in Tekla Structures
This tool measures an arc length and any circle radius by indicating 3
Create a circle of 500 mm radius using the construction geometry tools.

The algorithm for using the “Measure - Arc” tool :
Make sure all operations are canceled or press the Esc key.
Enable the “Measure - Arc” tool.
Select the line's intersection point.
Select an arbitrary point at the first line.
Select an arbitrary point at the second line.
To disable the “Measure - Arc” tool, press the Esc key.

Note that using this tool gives out two values, which are the arc length
and the circle radius. It is not necessarily creating a construction
geometry circle for trying out this tool. It is sufficient to indicate
just 3 arbitrary points at the work plane.
