Example: Dimension anchor bolt plans
Here are some examples of what the dimensions in anchor bolt plans look like in different situations.
First an example of a typical situation, where all columns are located in grid line intersections:
If the column reference point is not located on the grid line, Tekla Structures dimensions the reference point automatically relative to the grid lines. See the example below.
If the column is rotated relative to the drawing, the rotation is also automatically dimensioned. See the example below.
If you set the advanced option
XS_ANCHOR_BOLT_PLAN_USE_VIEW_COORDSYS_FOR_BOLT_DIMENSIONS
to
FALSE
and create the drawing, all dimensions are in the drawing coordinate system.
