Command -

     

The 3 base gusset plate group connects 2 bracing members to either a beam or column.

On activating this command you will be prompted to:

  1. Select the Column (or beam)
  2. Select the top (or right for beam) bracing member
  3. Select the bottom (or left for beam) bracing member


Note!

When selecting the profiles to be connected, Parabuild will automatically filter the proposed connections.

The filtering will not only be based on the profile types, but also their orientation with respect to each other. For example, Parabuild will recognize if the gusset plate is connecting to a column flange or web. This information is used by this command to filter out the incompatible connections in the connection selection dialog.

Therefore, the presented options may differ from those illustrated here.



The illustrations show the result of the edited customization dialog.

The shape of the gusset plate may be edited using the Modify Profiles or Plates or Modify Plate Vertices commands
