Create strip bases

A strip base is an isolated foundation that supports a single wall. To place strip bases in your model, see the following instructions.

Create a strip base under a specific wall

  1. On the Foundations tab, click Strip Base Wall.
  2. In the Properties window, adjust the strip base properties according to your needs.
  3. Click anywhere in the wall under which you want to place the strip base.

    Tekla Structural Designer places a strip base under the selected wall.

Create multiple strip bases

  1. On the Foundations tab, click Strip Base Wall.
  2. In the Properties window, adjust the strip base properties according to your needs.
  3. Move the mouse pointer to a corner of an imaginary box that will encompass the walls under which you want to place strip bases.
  4. Hold down the left mouse button.
  5. Drag the mouse pointer to the opposite corner of the box.
  6. Release the mouse button.

    Tekla Structural Designer places strip bases under all walls within the box.
