Hi again
,
I would like to create a connection. For an angle that is attached to a sloped W beam.
The closest connection advance Steel 2018 has is:
“Front plate spliced variable” and a moment end plate, however you cannot align or rotate the plate to position parallel to the top flange of the skewed beam as seen in the attached PDF.
I realise I might be asking a lot but it would be nice if there was an option in the macros to be able to align or rotate the plate in reference to the angle of the beam and have the bolts follow.
I could create a custom connection though its not quite copasetic as the angle seems of.
Please see attachment.
Just sayin
…..
Best regards,
