Nodal Supports

The columns are supported at their footings in all directions, each with a rotational restraint about the longitudinal axis. This time, the tables are used to assign the supports in a different way.

In the table, open the list of categories that are available for 'Structure' objects. Select the Types for Nodes to change the table contents.

The 'Hinged' type of support is preset as no. 1. Active check boxes refer to the translational or rotational degrees of freedom that are constrained by the support.

In the first column, enter the numbers of the nodes at the column footings: 6-8.
