2 Creating Elevation Views
An elevation view
is used to create an
elevation or Different View orientations
section view of a for creating elevation view
model. This is
typically a view
created by
"passing a vertical
plane" through the
3D model at a
defined point.
2 Placing Elevation Grids
The Place
Elevation Grid
command creates a
set of grid lines and
labels in an
elevation model
view.The grid can
be placed in any
active elevation
model view
2 Placing Vertical Braces
Three
dimensional
Views are
necessary to use
a 3-D view for
structures with
intricate bracing,
such as
transmission
towers, or
irregular
structure
geometry.
2 Creating Named Groups
The FrameWorks
Manager Utilities >
Create > Section
Table command
creates user section
tables. If you plan to
use nonstandard
sections in the
structural model, you
should create a user
section library file to
store these sections.
3 Creating User Sections
The Compute
Cutbacks command
performs the planar Beams cutback upto the face of the column
cutback calculations
on a select member or
defined group.
Cutbacks are
computed based on the
parameters defined
and the cutback
priorities of the
members involved.
4 FrameWorks Plus - Exercises
Applying Work Point Offsets
- The Work Point Offset command makes minor
adjustments to the physical location of one member end
while still maintaining the original location’s connectivity
for analytical considerations.
Applying Fireproofing to Members
- The Modify Fireproofing command assigns,
changes, or deletes fireproofing on a linear member.
5 FrameWorks Plus - Exercises
Attaching a Model to Another Model
- The File > Attach Model command attaches, as read-
only, model data from another model in the current
project. This command is an intelligent extension of
MicroStation's reference file capabilities.
Creating Foundation Views
- Creating a
plan view at
TOS 0 metre
level.
5 Placing a Slab on the First Floor
The Place Slabs command places slabs in the model.
Slabs can be defined with up to 100 corners (vertices).
5 Placing Footings
The Utilities
commands are used
to generate reports
(both material take-
offs, analytical, and
center of gravity),
review database
attributes of
members, and
review and create
sections in a
section library.
7 Creating the Frozen Views
The FrameWorks
Manager Utilities

command creates
a drawing file in
the current
project.
