Is there anyway of adding a Chamfer to the Rectangular Concrete Columns in AECOsim?
We are using AECOsim SS4 Version 08.11.09.622
No, it isn't.
But I've filed a CR for this type of profile about 2 years ago, which Bentley has on the list for implementation as far as I know.
Right now you can just draw a closed profile, and extrude it. Alternatively you can use a rectangular profile, and cut the solid.
Thanks Andreas, I might as well draw the exact shape an extrude it... too bad because I won't be able to get all the AECOsim info even if I do add Instance Data to it...
So I guess your CR is still opened on this?
I think you can add both datagroup properties and family/part after you have modeled it. The only thing you won't be able to assign is structural information, as far as I know.
And, yes, I think the CR is still open. Steve gave an update on communities not so long ago, it's somewhere in the system.
FWIW, you could take a solid rectangular profile and add fillets as feature cuts.
Btw., here is a link to the other thread.
