If your bracing isn't constrained to a vertical plane in real life, I feel bad for you, son. If "looks" are important to you, use the Cope tool, or (and this is something I haven't played with too much) try the Structural Detailing toolset. Not 3, even though in practice they will use 3 sticks. Typically, this is set to either 0, 0.5, or 1.ĭrawing "ordinary" Vertical X-bracing? Use 2 sticks. Adjust the workpoint location of each brace using the "ratio" option. Then, snap your braces to the location line of the elements, hover over them and it will attempt to do this for you automatically.
If people complain about you using grids, put them on their own workset and make them a unique type so filtering them is easy.ĭrawing VERTICAL Bracing? Use the Brace tool in an Elevation (constrained to a grid). Shrink down the depth of the section to 6" deep or so, to eliminate snapping to elements outside the plane. Now your framing will automatically be constrained to the grid. Use the "Framing Elevation" tool, and create a view snapped to that grid.
