Settings exist Design part includes settings that tell it what to information should be passed from the Tekla element to the design file. The settings control if, and how, to pull over the concrete extent and reinforcing information. |

Concrete Extents
Concrete extents can either be included in the target design file or skipped. If the are included, Eriksson Sync will replace the entire contents of the concrete extents tab with information from the Tekla Structure’s model. This includes the exact geometry, as modeled, and cross section information (which is provided by the profile). The solid zone inclusion option is for insulated wall panels. It dictates which solid zones you want to be included in the design file. In order for this method to work, the element must contain an insulation solid. Material properties are pulled over as long as the elements material name is in PSI (5000, 6000, etc).
Reinforcement
Each type of reinforcement is given the option to be included in the target design file or skipped. If a piece of reinforcement is included it will replace that type of reinforcement that is currently in the model, IE including strand will replace all strand in the design file, even if the model is blank. The reinforcement is placed relative to the bottom left corner of the section in the design file. The material properties of the reinforcement is not pulled over.
