Align

This tool aligns structural elements into the specified line. The tool may be applied to joint, member or selected elements. One of these three modes has to be selected in the first window "Topology adjustment - align".

Selection of tool mode

Selection of elements

The input of alignment line follows after running the alignment tool. The line is defined by two points, these points may be specified by coordinates or by choosing the existing joints. The selection of joints may be done by clicking in the workspace or with the help of input lines in the input frame.

Selection of joint in the input frame

The joint of member for alignment will be selected in a similar way.

Alignment parameters

The window contains an option to modify the position of alignment line and also select the mode of manipulation.

Alignment of selected elements

Following modes are available for joints:

Align to a line by retaining coordinate Y

  • Alignment of joint into point lying on alignment line. The horizontal coordinate Y of the new position is identical to the coordinate of original position.

Align to a line by retaining coordinate Z

  • Alignment of joint into point lying on alignment line. The horizontal coordinate Z of the new position is identical to the coordinate of original position.

Align to a line by setting coordinate Y

  • Alignment of joint into point lying on alignment line. The horizontal coordinate Y of the new position is specified by the user.

Align to a line by setting coordinate Z

  • Alignment of joint into points lying on alignment line. The horizontal coordinate Z of the new position is specified by the user.

Align to a line by perpendicular line lead through joint

  • Alignment of joint into point lying on alignment line. The new position is the closest point on the line (measured from original position).

Align to a line in distance from the first point

  • Alignment of joint into point lying on alignment line. The position is given by the distance from the first specified point of the alignment line.

Following modes are available for members and selected elements:

Align to a line by retaining coordinate Y

  • Alignment of start and end joints of the member (or selected joints, end joints of selected members) into points lying on alignment line. The horizontal coordinate Y of the new position is identical to the coordinate of original position.

Align to a line by retaining coordinate Z

  • Alignment of start and end joints of the member (or selected joints, end joints of selected members) into points lying on alignment line. The horizontal coordinate Z of the new position is identical to the coordinate of original position.

Align to a line by perpendicular line lead through joint

  • Alignment of start and end joints of the member (or selected joints, end joints of selected members) into points lying on alignment line. The new position is the closest point on the line (measured from original position).
