"Civil Engineering" docking window" > Steel Engineering > Stairs+Railings > Stairs > Vertical ladder
Use this function to configure vertical ladders in only a few steps. When you activate the function, the Vertical ladder dialogue window will be displayed:
The default settings for vertical ladders can be specified in the Configuration Editor at Steel Engineering > Products > Vertical ladder.
Configuration of vertical ladders are managed in the new ISD Configuration Editor. Such ladder configurations have the name
MODULE.STEEL-WORK.PRODUCTS.CatLadder.xxxx
with xxxx being the designation for the respective configuration. The predefined configuration
MODULE.STEEL-WORK.PRODUCTS.CatLadder.Default
is supplied with HiCAD. This configuration will be active when you call the Vertical ladder function for the first time.
If various ladder configurations are available, you can select a configuration via the listbox at the top of the dialogue window. The toolbar below the listbox provides the following configuration management functions:

You configure the vertical ladder via the buttons of the dialogue window:
Use the 
and. 
symbols to expand and collapse the input areas of the buttons.
Please remember that the fitting of the ladder takes place according to DIN. If one of the entered values is outside the allowed minimum or maximum value range, this will be indicated by the 
symbol. In such cases, please correct you entry accordingly.
Here you enter the name of the vertical ladder, e.g. Vertical ladder 12750-R, and select the folder where the KRA files fot the ladder components are located. Click the 
icon to select the folder in the Explorer. The predefined part and assemblies can be found in the HiCAD directory KATALOGE > WERKSNORMEN > STAHLBAU > PRODUKTE > STEIGLEITER.
In this area you specify the dimensions of the ladder. These are:
You use the Stile type listbox to specify whether you want to use a profile from the HiCAD catalogue BEAMS+PROFILES, or a KRA file containing the 3-D part or the assembly for the ladder stile.
icon to select a different profile or material. icon and select the desired file.
Here you specify the distance between the rungs (8) and the distance of the top rung to the stile end (9). As with the stiles, you have the option here to use profiles from the HiCAD catalogue BEAMS+PROFILES, or KRA files as rungs.
In this section you define the size, as well as other parameters of the security cages of the ladder. These are:
The landing must be available as KRA files for the left and the right cage in the folder shown at the top of the window. Further landing parameters are:
Here you specify the distance between two connections (anchorings) (19) and select the corresponding KRA file of the connection.
After defining all required parameters, click OK to commence the fitting of the ladder. HiCAD starts calculating the ladder.
After completion of the calculation you will be prompted to specify a fitting point on the vertical ladder, and then specify the position of this point in your drawing.
The vertical ladder will be fitted into the drawing as an assembly. Each of these assemblies has the following structure:
(1) is a superordinate assembly. The part name is the name specified in the dialogue window, the article number is Assembly.
(2) and (3) are the assemblies of the vertical ladder. The article number is the name specified in the dialogue window. The part name is automatically assigned by HiCAD.
(4) Each section of the vertical ladder forms an assembly, which is in turn subdivided into several assemblies.
All assemblies of the vertical ladder are BOM-relevant.
