Automatic Generation of Section Cuts

Section Cuts can be automatically generated by the program for an entire Wall Design Group at a time. The process employed uses the geometry of the Walls and openings in each Wall Design Group to place sections at locations likely to be of interest to the engineer when performing the design checks. Conceptually, this includes:

  • Tops and bottoms of stories
  • Edges of wall panels
  • Edges of wall openings

The user may modify the criteria used to generate Section Cuts. Furthermore, the user may edit or delete any of the generated Section Cuts just as if they were manually assigned.
