Users can use custom anchor rods inside the system component, Stair Base Detail (1043).
There are four custom anchor rods available in both the US Imperial and US Metric environments.

Component 1043 controls the angle and holes.

First, you need to open up one of the custom anchor rods.
- Make the desired changes to the custom component.
- Save your changes accordingly. Then close this dialog box.

Again, the angle thickness is controlled inside component 1043 (see image below in blue box), so you need to make sure you also enter this thickness in the custom anchor rod dialog (as shown above in blue box).
Image
To utilize a custom anchor rod inside 1043 do the following;
- Set the Create as option to Custom component
- Set the Component field to the custom anchor rod component you modified above. Then in the Custom settings field, type in the name you saved in step 2 above.
Image
Either Apply the above setting to a new column or Modify a location in your model where you've already added component 1043.
