Tekla Structures - 20 minute portal frame modelling

A condensed look at how you might build a hot rolled portal frame from scratch, including connections.

So many great tips here! So many bad habits I'm guilty of - eesh!
Orienting the CHS bracing via the workplane tool and setting the rotation to zero so that the drawings are along the plate axis is a game changer!
Some of those point tools are going to come in handy too!
Thanks for the video - very helpful indeed!

In modeling if dimension is 6000 mm than how can we get a suffix of "mm" while modeling...? In short i want to view units in model while modeling..?!

[@chris_gatehouse]

You set the units in the options (file > settings > options > units & decimals)

[@vasubhadania]

@@chris_gatehouse yes I did that but in drawings only 6000 is visible not 6000 mm

[@chris_gatehouse]

@@vasubhadania Your original question was about units in the model. The difference between metric and imperial is fairly obvious, but if you wanted to display a suffix on your dimensions you can use the dimension tag functionality to achieve it.

@@chris_gatehouse please check your email i have sent the photos about the issue.....
