Marking: Bolts

Sets the format of the element Center-to-center distance in bolt marks, when the bolts are in the same part, for example, in a column or beam flange. Use to define gage information in the bolt mark in the following way:

  • Use the switch %VALUE% for the numeric value of a gage.

  • You can add text and the option in any order, for example, %VALUE% GAGE or GAGE %VALUE%.

  • If %VALUE% is missing, Tekla Structures adds the center-to-center distance to the end of the string.

  • If this advanced option is not set, only %VALUE% is used.

  • If Tekla Structures cannot calculate the gage, nothing is added in the mark.

  • The default value value is GAGE = %VALUE% .

This advanced option is model specific and the setting is saved in the options database.

Example

There is a symmetrical bolt group in a beam flange. The value for gage is 10.

In the Advanced Options dialog box

In bolt mark

GAGE
= %VALUE%

GAGE = 10
