Floor and Roof Framings

The structure parameters of horizontal structures are defined for each layer separately using a framing tool. The framing tool determines the design rules based on which the parts are added to the layer (joists to basic layer, other joists, sheets). The parts can be added to the entire structure, or to each layer separately.

Note

• You can set the building components such as beams and columns added to the architectural model also visible in the framing model.
• You can create beam structure panels of the pieces in a framing. You can use the Floor And Roof Panel functions for managing the beam structure panels.
• As a default, joints are formed between the parts of the framing when creating the framing. If necessary, you can create the framing without joints by setting the keyword framing_joint_mode= 0 in the keyword group BDSXX.
