Walls

Modelling of concrete wall elements follows principles similar to those used to create beams in Building Design. Sub components are supported in wall elements. In addition Building Design supports limited connectivity between wall elements. Subject to the wall type created, walls can be connected to each other, columns, beams, and floor elements.

In Building Design a Wall element is owned by a Group element. The wall element is administrative, further dividing the design element data structure. The physical geometry of a wall is provided by:

• Straight Wall (STWALL) – soft type of section.

• Curved Wall (WALL) – soft type of general section.

• General Wall (GWALL) – soft type of panel.
