Create two lines at the required offset design,refs model 100,mast,,cl00,7=-15 100,mast,,cr00,7=15 999 Create a model to store the sections create,model 2 Section the triangulation along the strings section,ground trian,refs model section,model 2 177,mast,tx00,tc00 177,cl00,tx00,tl00 177,cr00,tx00,tr00 999 Take cross sections - labelled 'A' here at every point on MAST (173) or at defined interval (174) section,model 2,refs model section,model 2 173,mast,,A,7=-20,10=20 or 174,mast,,A,10,7=-20,10=20 999 Delete strings if not needed edit,refs model 004,3=cl00 004,3=cr00 999 Report the points on the sections There will be 3 points per section - left, centre, right report,model 2 992,a 999

My 177 options are creating new strings Txxx - my model and strings names are only examples, replace them with your model and string names. I placed the new strings in a new model just to keep them separate from the design model. 
 I did not assign any FNS/PSS to the model as I am only reporting it - you can assign what you like.
