While assigning sections from steel macros, you can select sections in the library or define them by typing the section name from the keyboard. You can define cold rolled C and Z sections to be used in steel purlins from the Structural Tree Sections Add New Section tab. You can select a sliding connection type to be used in all secondary beams from the steel sub-beam connections sub-tab. Single slip plate connection, T profile connection, butt plate slip joint, Angle bracket connections are produced by applying preliminary design in steel secondary beams. The preliminary design is made in accordance with the capacity design. The joint pre-design is made in such a way that it can transfer the plastic capacity of the auxiliary steel beam to which it is attached and transfers the shear force and conforms to the geometry rules in the relevant regulation. It is sufficient to select one combination while holding ctrl to select the combinations created at once with the steel purlin and secondary beam macros. All combinations belonging to the element group are selected and their properties can be edited all at once. From the Design Steel Joint tab, the design ratios of the joints and whether they are sufficient can be seen. In case of double-clicking on the name of the combination that is insufficient, the properties of the combination will be opened. If the combination is intervened and the OK button is pressed, the new design ratio of the combination will be displayed on the screen. If there is a selected element in the project, only the individual element and assembly drawings of the relevant element are obtained. If there is a selected element in the project, only the detailed steel quantity of the relevant element can be obtained. If the steel drawings are first obtained in the project and then the joint summary report is created, the ID numbers of the joints and the detail numbers in the drawings will be the same. In this way, project control will be easier with drawings and report compatibility. After running a command, ideCAD writes what needs to be done at each step in the status bar at the bottom of the screen. You can easily learn and apply any command with this feature. In steel columns and beams, you can define vertical and horizontal curvature. You can define a column between any two points with the Steel Column 2 Point command. You can define the wall automatically with the automatic wall height option in the Settings Loads tab in Steel Beams, or you can define the wall height you want by removing this option. Profile type in steel elements; You can define the profile by directly typing the profile in the section section and pressing the enter key, or by selecting one of the profiles in the archive from the section upload section. In the secondary beam and purlin settings, in the Extensions tab, if you select the direction at the top, under the hood or in the middle, you can change the connection types between the elements in the Connection type section.

Hello Nurgul; First of all, thank you for sharing, it was very useful sharing. We cannot use the command to add or remove the purlins from the command line while selecting the analysis parts in purlins, can you explain about this? Best regards.
 
Hello there; Click on any lover while holding down the left shift. The color of all lovers within the same purlin group will turn purple, indicating that it is selected. If you exit the command with the esc key and then check it via select analysis parts, you can see that the selection has been made. Good work.
 
Hello Nurgul; Thanks for the explanation, I think we've always tried it on exploded lovers. Exploded purlins can be selected at once with Ctrl+, but cannot be added or removed from the analysis model at once with Shift+. Best regards.
 
Take it easy, for lovers, I can't define after loading the c section from the building tree. Galvanized c is not showing in the lovers tab??
