Users may want to ensure the stability of girders during the analysis of girder erection. Girders that are not connected with bracings may be unstable. To address this issue, the girders are supported at temporary support locations, and this element can be utilized for this purpose.
General
Insertion Point: ‘Pick..’ or ‘Select..’ an insertion point to define the location of the single element.
Girder: Pick the girder to be supported.
Support Location On Girder [Top/Bottom]: The single element can support the girder from either its top side or bottom side, determined by this parameter. This definition will affect both the FEM and the 3D model.
Station: The station, relative to the PGL, of the single element's girder portion can be specified using this parameter.
Section: The section of the element will be assigned to the beam elements in finite element analysis.
