Using GA schedules

Below templates are installed with this tool.

Template Name	Path	Sample Output
Schedule of Columns.tpl	Environments/Common/template	Image
Schedule of Section.tpl	Environments/Common/template	Image
Schedule of Members.tpl	Environments/Common/template	Image

1. Using X_Section -
   • If built-up members are used , they should be inserted in the model using
     • Built-up macros of Tekla India Add-on tools  or
     • They should be defined as custom part ( Custom component)
     • In templates sorting done based on  GetValue("MAINPART.PROFILE")+GetValue("ASSEMBLY_NAME")+GetValue("BuiltUpName")
       
       Note : BuiltUpName –is internal value used in Built-up macros to differentiate profiles
   • If any changes required in presentation, you can use any default template listed above and modify them as per your requirement.

   • Representation: Colour , font , font height , etc. can be controlled by an auto generated files in respective model folder

     a. XSection.Attributes.csv - For shape diagram

     b. XSection.RefText.Attributes.csv - Profile information

   • Note : - If you add graphical field in your own template then to use this attribute you need to open .tpl file in note pad and find this graphical field and set its "field" attribute value to "X_SECTION" then only this will give correct output. 
      

2. Using MEM_SCH - 

   a. If built-up members are used, they should be inserted in the model using

   • Built-up macros of Tekla India Add-on tools  or

   • They should be defined as custom part ( Custom component)

   • In templates sorting one based on  GetValue("MAINPART.PROFILE")+GetValue("ASSEMBLY_NAME")+GetValue("BuiltUpName")
     
     Note: BuiltUpName –is internal value used in Built-up macros to differentiate profiles

   •  ASSEMBLY_NAME should be profile defined for Built-up members
     
     If any changes required in presentation, you can use any default template listed above and modify them as per your requirement.
     
      

     Create GA drawing with MEMBER SCHEDULE drawing setting.  In Drawings you need to call PROFILE for rolled sections and ASSEMBLY_NAME for Built-up sections in partmark.

      On opening the created drawing, a .csv file will be generated in model folder “MemberSchedules”. Open this file in excel and give the required designations for all the profiles used in model

3. Using ASSY_POS -

• If built-up members are used, they should be inserted in the model using

  • Built-up macros of Tekla India Add-on tools  or

  • They should be defined as custom part ( Custom component)

• Numbering should be up-to date

• Create GA drawing with “ERECTION DRAWING” or use the template “Schedule of Members.tpl”.

  Representation : Colour , font , font height , etc can be controlled by an auto generated file “AssemblyPositions.Attributes.csv” in respective model folder .
