Thanks Paul, I hoping for some solution that would allow me to have the sections in the MTO. Looking forward to future releases then....

I understand the Vikings are looking for some players...

There currently is no "rail" section in the steel tables. I've had users use the "Precast I Beam" and added different dimensions in the table to reflect a rail-type shape.

I understand a rail shape is in the works for a futur release.

If I have to bump too much more I might as well take up Pro Football.

Hi all,

I have a Client who want a new rail beam that has different beam widths top vs bottom. If this possible in Bentley Structural in the stf file or will it have to be a modelled section?

Thanks,
