Hello Noel

The "Lot/Phase" is an attribute you can use to split your model in parts: "Phase 1”, "Phase 2"... it's useful if you have a big job and you would like to detail, fabricate or send the job in site by parts not all in the same time.

The "Lot/Phase" it’s also good for numbering. If the check box in from the field "Lot/Phase" is checked and if you have 2 identical pieces but one is in "Phase 1" and the second is in "Phase 2" they will get 2 different part marks.

Also is good for the pieces marks. After the numbering is done you can select all the element from "Phase 1" and you can start creating the drawings with 100 like this all the elements from "Phase 1"  will have the pieces mark starting with 1XX, after that you can select the elements from "Phase 2"  and you start creating the drawings with 200 and you can continue like this depending how many phases you have in your job. Using this method you know for sure that the beam B156 is from phase 1 and the beam B239 is from phase 2

Also you can use this to do list by phases, like this you can know the necessary material by phases and by all job. 

This spilt can done by parts of your job from left to right, from right to left but also you can go by floors (levels).

Hello Vincent

Can you tell me if you still have the issue after installing SP-3? I try in my side and I don't have any issues.

Thanks.

Hello Greg

First you need to use as much is possible the "Shear Plate" connection which is giving you all the possibilities to create the shear plate and the stiffeners like you need.
After you finish with the "ShearPlate" connection, the other operation you need to do to the stiffeners needs to be done outside of the connection, I mean you need to use the weld preparation tool to create the weld preparation and the rectangle contour for plates to cut the plates to avoid the k-distance (we have the possibility to cu the stiffener straight, concave or convex) but not 2 cuts like you need.

Hello Adam

Maybe I can help you here. Please verify in your prototypes if the Hidden line is load, and also what is the value for the ltscale variable, it should be "1".

Regards.

Hello everyone

SP-2 was released today 02-02-2010 , you can dowload it from the "Graitec Advantage website".

Hi Vincent

By default there is no process for Sp to be detailed according to the USC, but it can be done. Just send the AstorAddin to the support and they will be able to do it.
