titleQuick Tip: Learn how to read issues

When encountering the warning as seen in OpenBrIM app, there is a "issue" , it is advised to review the parameters you have provided. This warning suggests that there might be a missing or incorrect parameter in your input. Check inputs to ensure they are accurate and complete.

When a warning is clicked, the reason can be displayed. The warning is expressed in the format of Component Group Name (can be viewed in the treeview) > User Defined Component Name (can be viewed in the spreadsheet name column) > Parameter Name (can be viewed in the spreadsheet column header).

After clicking on 'Superstructure > Connections > Bolted Field Splice' in the tree view, navigate to the Bolt category. Set the Bolt Property input. The issue will be resolved after these steps.

The screenshot demonstrates one example of two Bolted Field Splice components named BFS1 and BFS2 by the user, with parameter names Flange Bolt Property and Web Bolt Property.

titleQuick Tip: Learn what the 'Construction Method' parameter means.

In Staged Construction Analysis, when joints are activated they normally enter at the location that was initially given to them. Joints sometimes need to become active in a location relative to the deformed structure of the model, rather than in an exact position known ahead of time.

The construction method option of construction stages specifies how to place a joint relative to the deformed location of other joints.

In Steel I Girder Bridges, deck formwork deforms and follows girder displacements. Therefore deck nodes should be constructed by shifting the node down to match the translational displacement of the girders nodes. This can be achieved with the Construction Method = Equal option of construction stages.
