COPY AECOSIM STEEL COLUMN ALONG A PATH

Adlf

Hi.
I'm trying to copy an Aecosim column through a 3D path but I can not get it.
The column must always be vertical and repeated at a distance of 4 m.


What is the best way to do this?

    Hi Adlf,

    Would the Array tool do what you need?

    Thanks Steve.

    I have tried this but it does not work well.

    Maybe it's because it's a 3d path.

    The final distance is not the correct one and the copies are deviated with respect to the path.

    Any suggestion?

    Hi Adlf,

    You're welcome.    The video is a bit small so hard to make out exactly what is happening.

    So...   This test uses the same process but with the Rotate Items option enabled.   Granted, the distance between copies can be a bit tricky when arrayed around an angle or curve, but this might be as close as you can get without first sub-dividing the path element into equal length segments.
