PEB shed - connection

[abdulazeez88]

Dear sir,

    How do i create column to rafter connection for peb structure, because for these type of connection there will be a two connection plate (one for column & other for rafter) with stiffener & knee. But this type connection is not available in advance steel. So what is the solution or if it available please suggest me the path. Thanking you.

No Macros available in connection vault.

You need to manually model each and every compnent of the connection and then add it as a custom connection.

For PEB buildings , try using the welded tapered Beam tool to create the columns and the rafters.

Also then you will be able to use the standard connections for moment end plate , rafter haunch connections all within the connection vault, palette.
