Click three-dots icon on Stage cell and click select.

3

Select "BridgeConst" as stage.

4

Click three-dots icon on Pier Caps/Bents cell and set as EndBent1

In this section, we did not select all Pier Caps/Bents at the same time. This is because these related structures will be builded partial.

Keep the default parameter values without making any changes.

Please repeat the previous steps for all the Pier Caps/Bents in the project.

 Quick Tip: FEA Model

Upon inputting the data into the OpenBrIM spreadsheet, every library component undergoes an automatic generation of a 3D Model and FEA Model. The "Model" view provides a 3D representation of the model, while the "FEA" view offers an analytical representation. Any changes made to the parameters trigger updates in both views, ensuring they stay synchronized with the latest modifications.

Various display options are available in the FEA Model.

If you wish to obtain the "Construction Stage" view in the FEA model, you have the choice to either view the current construction status of the selected stage “Display Constructured Only” or the entire construction status “Display All Structure”


Follow the below steps to copy and paste all inputs from our data set.

1

Navigate to Pier Cap/Bent Construction (Partial) under Substructure on the tree view.

2

Copy Pier Cap/Bent Construction from model inputs and paste into OpenBrIM.


 Quick Tip: Copy inputs to OpenBrIM

Copy the desired data with the automatic copy button in the upper left corner.

Click on the first cell in and use the Ctrl+V shortcut to paste.

If icon won’t appear, collapse page tree menu by clicking on arrow or using shortcut “[”.

While pasting large data, it would be handy to turn of Auto-refresh .
