Command - Prb_StudsOnPlane

   
This command allows us to insert a range of Studs and welded rebar on a planar surface.
The command also allows inserting a lifting lug because the lug macro needs the same surface selection and there is no separate command for it.

After choosing the macro, it will ask you to select the planar surface to which the parts need to be welded.
The neighbouring edges of the face that you selected are searched for and used to position the parts.

The available macros of this command are explained here in detail :


Shear Studs multiple rows

This macro expects a planar surface to be selected to which each stud should be welded.

This macro will draw a 2D array that allows multiple rows of studs to be drawn.
The neighbouring edges of the planar surface that was selected are used to position these arrays of rebars.

The size of the studs can be adjusted.


Shear studs (single row)

This macro expects a planar surface to be selected to which each stud should be welded.

This macro will draw a single row of studs.
The longest neighbouring edge determines the array's length over which the studs will be spread out.

The size of the studs can be adjusted.

Rebar C/U/L

This macro expects a planar surface to be selected to which each rebar should be welded.

The macro will draw an array of C/U/L rebars on this surface.
The neighbouring edges of the planar surface that was selected are used to position the rebars.
The longest neighbouring edge determines the array's length over which the rebars will be spread out.

Note The macro is flexible enough to allow drawing of U rebars and unequal shaped rebars because the 4 legs can be resized or disabled independently by setting their length to 0.
It is therefore possible to create L shapes too.
The only part that can't be disabled is the main long segment.
The rebar location can also be switched so that the long main segment is welded to the surface instead of the leg(s). 

Lifting Lug

This macro expects a planar surface to be selected plus a point geometry for the position of the lug on that surface.

The macro will draw a lifting lug on this surface.
The neighbouring edges of the planar surface that was selected are used to position the lug.
