Converting pinned column base to Fixed column base

Anonymous
Not applicable

Greetings Members, 

 

I have a model , in which I have to check the Column base connections. 

 

In robot, it takes the foundation as Concrete. I had to create a custom material with Steel properties so as to use it. 

 

I have selected the column and its supported node and robot automatically generated a pinned-column base connection type,.

 

My quiries:

 

1) Is it okay to model the foundation block as steel plate ? 

 

2) How can I change the pinned-column type to fixed-column type. I want to use more number of anchor rows. In pinned column type, it is hard coded to 2. 

 

Thanks

Not possible.

Change support onto fixed on model and then import it to steel connection module.
