The AEC|BOLT BIM Cloud library has Library provides a wide range of code check and design templates for structural elements based on different building codes for structural elements. Imported templates can be assigned as design codes or verification codes in this sectionvarious building codes. In this section, you can import these templates and assign them as either design codes or verification codes. These templates serve as valuable resources for ensuring that your structural elements comply with the specific requirements and standards set by different building codes. By utilizing the imported templates, you can streamline the design and verification process, saving time and ensuring the structural integrity of your project.

You have two options to set the templates in this section:

→ Click on "Load Template Groups" to automatically import and set all the templates automatically. This convenient feature allows you to quickly load and apply the templates without manual intervention.

or

→ Set the previously imported templates manually as demonstrated templates manually. You can select and assign the desired templates manually, following the instructions provided in Figure 2. This gives you more control and flexibility in customizing the template selection according to your specific project requirements.

Importing code check objects from You can import various structural objects for code checks, design, seismic analysis, and wind analysis from the AEC|BOLT BIM Cloud database. These objects are available in different template categories:

  1. Code Check Templates: These templates include code check objects based on different building codes. You can import and use them to perform code compliance checks for structural elements.

  2. Design Templates: These templates contain design objects for structural elements. You can import and utilize them to assist in the design process of your project.

  3. Seismic Parameters: By importing seismic coefficients and seismic design factors from the AEC|BOLT BIM Cloud database

...

  1. , you can incorporate seismic analysis into your structural design.

  2. Wind Parameters: The computation of wind parameters is described in the "Wind Parameters" section. Here, you can access the necessary information and guidelines to calculate wind loads and incorporate them into your structural design.

By leveraging these resources from the AEC|BOLT BIM Cloud database, you can enhance the efficiency of your structural analysis and design process.
