Pile Construction

Stage: Choose the stage for constructing the piers. Usually, the construction of pier caps, piers, footings, and piles is completed within a single stage.

All Piles Under Substructure: Users can conveniently select connected substructure elements instead of individually choosing piles. The library component automatically identifies and constructs the connected piles.

Individual Piles: Select the piles for construction. There is no need to reselect piles under substructures if the "All piles under substructure" parameter is used.

Self-Weight Factor: Indicate the self-weight factor, which is calculated using the material's unit weight and the object's volume, typically set to 1The Self-Weight Factor is a parameter used to adjust the contribution of an object's own weight in structural analysis. This factor is particularly useful in simulations, as it enables the scaling or modification of the self-weight during finite element analysis (FEA).
