It should work for most of steel database sections,and most of  parametric and tapered steel sections

 

Assuptions:

- panels are created in mid  "walls" planes

- thicknesses should be corectly recognized and applied

- tapered thickness (of defined for tapered member) is not considered

 

Example:

Did my best 🙂

 

Circle segments : edit macro and find

 

Ndiv parameter for quarter of the circle

 

If (R <= 0.2) Then
    NDiv = 3
Else
    If (R > 0.2 And R <= 0.4) Then
        NDiv = 4
    Else
        NDiv = 5
    End If
End If

Hi @Rafal.Gaweda 

 

Is it possible to implement this feature to RSA, could you kindly share this feedback with development team? 

 

Thanks
