In our company we use the End_Detail 1/ End_Detail 2 fields to transfer Design code information to Tekla Structures Via SDNF.
In the past working on structural XM there was a VBA that passed the Packet 40 info into a text file which could then be copied and amended to the SDNF to carry this information over.
Since moving to AECOsim SS6 the VBA has not been carried over and the XM version does not work anymore.
Could you please shed some lite on how we would transfer this information moving forward.
As this is a curtail part of our companies workflow.
We have tried the ISM route and this does not include the information required either.
, neither does CIS/2
The basic breakdown appears to be:
- Packet 00: Project information
- Packet 10: members
- Packet 20: plates
- Packet 60: curved members
And looking through some relatively old information I have on hand, I think Packet 40 is intended for end details. Though I'm not sure whether we support them as is.
