Divide Beams
Steel Engineering > Lengthen > Divide
This function divides beams and profiles along a direction into several sections. Various division options are available, for example, the individual profiles can have different lengths. In addition, a corresponding feature is created with this function so that the division can also be processed later if desired.
The function essentially works in the same way as the function 3-D Standard > Process > Trim > Divide along direction
, apart from the following differences:
- The beam to be divided must be selected after the function call.
- The beam axis is automatically suggested as the division axis, whereby the division direction is determined by the selection point.
(1) Original beam with division direction, (2) Divided once and flush, (3) Divided once, with gap, (4) Divided several times, with gaps, (5) Divided along direction, with gaps and different individual lengths
