Circular Baseplate Design

[reren]

Dear All

I've a few questions about RSA and designin circular baseplates in RSA. I generally use circular columns (CHS) and I want to use circular baseplates.

1. Is it possible to define circular baseplate in RSA?
2. If yes, how can I do it?
3. If no, what can I do to design a circular baseplate?
4. Also I place anchors on a circular pattern. Is it possible as well?
5. Possibility of plate stiffeners (round like bolts)?

There is an example of my baseplate application.

I also use stiffeners on baseplate as well and if possible want to apply them too.

Thank you very much.

The circular shape of the base plate is not supported for the column base connection in Robot.

Will it be implemented in the future in the new versions?

Hi,

A Finite Element Analysis of column base can be done, similar to this video .

Yes, it can be done with FEA but a more simple and easy way would be much more better. Hope they are planning to implement in near feature.

Thank you so much for the tutorial by they way. It's really useful not only for the base plates but also for other kind of FEAs.
