You can define offsets for an analysis part. Offsets move the analysis part in relation to the default location of the analysis axis.

1. In the physical model, select a part.
2. Right-click and select Analysis Properties.
3. In the part’s analysis properties dialog box:
   1. Go to the Position tab.
   2. In the Offset boxes, define the offset of the analysis part from the physical part’s analysis axis in the global x, y, and z directions.

      These values change if you move the analysis part in the model.

      These values do not reset if you move the physical part.

   3. In the Longitudinal offset mode list, select whether the longitudinal end offsets Dx of the physical part are taken into account.

      End offsets determine where Tekla Structures creates the end nodes of the analysis part.

   4. Click Modify.
