There is another option on this draw tool to draw based on Max spacing. Because the spacing between visible gridlines varies in this example because the B grid is hidden, the spacing of the beams vary too. Note what happens when we try quick-draw modeling secondary beams based on 4 beam setting shown below right.
Bracing is added between each visible gridline within the windowed areaĤ If you double-click any gridline in either SAP2000 or ETABS, you can modify grids, including the option to “Hide” from visibility. Quick-draw bracing in elevation view using Inverted V bracing option. 4 areas in this example, divided at each grid intersectionģ Quick-draw bracing in elevation view using Inverted V bracing option Alternatively, users could click inside each bay one-at-a-time to draw areas using this draw tool. Fill option was activated using Set Display option button (aka ‘Set building view options’ in ETABS). The issue to be aware of with use of quick-draw tools is that they divide elements at each visible grid intersection Click this tool then window around the area where you want to add elements Quick-draw tools indicated with red dot Activating joints to be visible and selecting a couple of members (dotted lines) makes clear that members are divided at grid intersectionsĢ With SAP2000 or ETABS, use of the quick-draw area element enables users to quickly model elements by windowing around a selected area to draw separate area elements divided at each visible gridline. In ETABS, the quick-draw tools are referred to as draw “at click” The quick-draw tools have the benefit of enabling the user to quickly draw multiple elements without having to mouse-click each element 2 or more times to draw them.
Quick-draw tools enable users to window around visible gridlines to draw, or use a single mouse click on or between visible gridlines.
