Modify end fixity

The Fixed/Pinned command allows you to graphically review and modify the end fixity of all members in the model.

  1. Open a view and switch the view regime to Review View.
  2. On the Review tab, select Fixed/Pinned.
  3. Go to the Properties window.
  4. In the Attribute list, ensure that Fixed/Pinned is selected.
  5. With the Mode set as Toggle, do one of the following:
    • Click near one end of an individual member to switch the end fixity at that end between the valid types, (the tooltip indicates the current fixity at that end).
    • Click near the middle of an individual member to switch the end fixity at both ends between the valid types, (the tooltip indicates the current fixities at both ends).
      • If both ends currently have the same end fixity then both are changed to the next valid type.

      • If the ends currently have different end fixities then both are changed to pinned (regardless of their current fixity).

    • Hold down the left mouse button and drag a box from left to right to alter the fixity settings of all members within the box.
    • Hold down the left mouse button and drag a box from right to left to alter the fixity settings of all members within the box or cut by the box.
  6. Alternatively, with the Mode set as Set On, select the FixityType required and then click near the end or middle of an individual member or drag a box, as above to apply the chosen fixity.
    Note: If you want to apply or remove a cantilever end, first select Cantilever end in the Attribute list. For details, see: Apply cantilever ends.
