   2. Data point elsewhere to confirm the selection The Place Diaphragms dialog opens
3. For the selected span from the list of spans, to place diaphragms between beams, select the start and end beam, the thickness of the diaphragm, vertical (top and bottom offsets), horizontal offsets in the default table.
4. You can also specify a skew angle and concrete material for the layout
5. Next specify the locations along the selected span where you would like to place the diaphragms and input the distances measured from the support line.
