To create a uniform gap around the outer edges of
surfaces, use the following procedure.
This procedure is
useful for situations where slabs or walls need to be physically separated but
it is useful to share nodes between them. For example, for tilt-up wall
structures.
-
Select the surfaces which will all have the same gap.
-
On the
Surface ribbon tab, select the
Create Gap tool in the
Edit group.
The
Create Surface Gap dialog opens.
-
Type the
Spacing to use around the edge of the
surfaces.
-
Click
OK.
The dialog closes and the spacing is added to the surfaces.
