Description

This tool copies all specialty equipment such as reinforcement and lifters from a source element to multiple target elements. This tool is not limited to a 2D view and can be copied in 3D models. When copying a bar or lifteran element, the tool compares the bar/lifter’s its location relative to the assembly’s location in the source element and positions it at the same location in the target element. Because of this, the assembly’s location must be correct in both the source and target element, or the reinforcement elements will be placed incorrectly.
