Regarding modelling of steel channel section

Post by MitalChovatiya73 » Fri Apr 09, 2021 7:48 am

Respected STKO Team,
I want to model steel channel section but I am not able to find option where i can give any arbitrary section by either manually drawing or giving parameter inputs.
Thank you in advance.

Dear MitalChovatiya73,

To create custom shaped section you can use the Fiber command in: Physical Properties > Fiber > Fiber section.

You can either draw it by hand in the Beam Fiber Section editor, or you can import a geometry that you created in the render view and merge, or even choose among one of the available shapes for the elastic sections.
