Checking this item allows you to choose any known international grade for sections and plates. Section grades can otherwise be chosen only from the grades nominated for each section in the library. This setting also allows you to choose any international bolting category.<br /> <br /> If you are still not seeing an appropriate steel grade when using that option let me know a bit more about the material you are using.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
