  • Minimum Pocket Depth for Coloumns

    Minimum Pocket Depth for Coloumns

    What is the minimum pocket depth required for rebated coloumns

    The minimum washer size is 3 mm. This could be different. If nothing is mentioned use 3 mm.

    The minimum bolt stick out should be 1 pitch. For M20 it is 2.5 mm. Use 10 mm stick out.

    Also there is grout. Pockets when cast could be of different depths. Use design grout of 15 mm minimum.

    The top of the bolt should be 35 mm below slab level to prevent concrete Cracking.

    Hence to be practical use 100 mm pocket depth with a base plate thickness of 16 mm and bolt size of 20 mm.

    • Pick First Selection in the Drawing (Tekla Open API)

      Imagine you are in the Tekla Drawing space. We want to dimension certain objects in the drawing. First we need to identify the objects that we want to select. Since the Tekla Closed Open API doesn’t have much of a picker exposed, we would be forced to select the objects we need before running our…

    • Changing All Block Definitions (AutoCAD .net API)

      (Unfortunately it’s not a block table record dictionary definition – but it kind of is :)) Some how or other all the block definitions associated with a drawing were not defined on layer zero – this is less than ideal. I guess it goes right up there with another instance I heard about: (i) about…

      A gif showing how easy it is to check for nibs on bubble deck slabs using my command. There are certain panels which we have that have protruding elements – salient features. These can be problematic if they go to production unnoticed. Given there are entire teams of people doing things, it can be hard…

      This is a repost from our sister site – I needn’t repeat it here, but it’s something that I’ve worked on, and which we hope to utilize to a greater degree when working with Tekla. Anyways, you can get the full blog post if you click this link here. Thank you for stopping by. Video…

    • How to Programmatically Select Objects in the Model (Tekla Open API)

      Background: What are we trying to do? We have programmatically identified some model objects that we want to select in the model – to attract attention to the user and to allow her to easily identify all such objects. In this particular case we will be creating some beams. And then, we will select those…

    Batch Edit a Part in Tekla Structures

    TeklaStructures has a batch editing utility for Assemblies.

    However, if we have to batch edit parts there is nothing.
