Hi! I am learning AS 2018. 

I have prepared one face of structure, Now I want to copy all bracings and joints in other 3 sided. I tried with Mirror3D command but it gives bracings and bolts but no holes in the flange.

how to do it. can any one give me idea.

Thanks,

Avinash

in this case, you may find it easier to find the Center of the structure and use this as a point of polar array.   Use the transform elements interface ,  set to polar copy, Center point,  and set rotation to 90, the 3 no.  You may have to select the corresponding leg, when applying.

Which commands for that? How to do it?

Hello,

I made a movie with the use of polar array in Advance steel.

But this option works only because your structure is rectangular.
