Apply wall extensions

Tekla Structural Designer allows you to trim new walls automatically, and trim or extend existing walls manually.

Automatically trim a new wall back to the face of existing columns and walls

  1. In the Properties window, select the AutomaticExtension option.
  2. Define the remaining wall properties as required.
  3. Place the wall.

Manually trim or extend existing walls

  1. Select the wall that you want to trim or extend.
  2. In the Properties window, locate the End 1 extension or End 2 extension field, and define the desired extension.
    Note:

    A positive extension extends the wall length beyond its insertion point.

    A negative extension trims the wall back from its insertion point.
