I Beam Autocad Drawing Free Download
Lex Mumphrey
Are there any user that are converting AutoCAD drawings (AutoCAD 2012) to DXF to use with Peddimat Software (including the DXF Converter)? I am researching the Pros and Cons, common practices, field experiences, etc., in order to produce some drafting rules / procedures for possible in house use.
Hi ppl,
I have an AutoCAD drawing about beams of a structure. I need the names and sizes of those beams as an Excel list.
Both the name and sizes (width and depth) of the beam are written in Text form, in two different layers. Lines of the beam are on another layer.
Sizes (width and depth) are written on the beam. Height should be read from the project with DIM command since the beam consists of only two lines. A screenshot of the dwg can be found in the attachment.
Basicly, LISP should be able to get the name and write it in Excel column1, dimensions to column 2 and 3 (or only column 2, I can manage to seperate it :)) and length of these two lines above and below these texts and write it in another column. Do you know any LISP that can do that?
There are better ways to store beam info like a dynamic block it can be just two lines but it will return the length and the sizes, another is to use xdata and attach this info to one of the lines. Moving 1 text could result in a miss of info. Even a plain block you can make attributes invisible so you don't see them but can find them.
Note that, there is no synchronization between the Rebar Callout block and the rebar line or pline object. Once the drawing is changed, you have to run JTBW_EditRebarCallout to update the information.
But once you have all rebar callouts with correct bending information, the app can generate Rebar Tables (or Barlist Tables) across drawings for you. Rebar Callout blocks are like BIM objects, and the rest of the work is automatic:
Beam Detailing Commands
The command's name is JTBW_DetailBeam. If you are drafting a multi-span beam with varying heights every day, then this command can be a game-changer for you.
The unique feature of the app is you don't have to enter the beam's dimensions to a window with text boxes and combo boxes, etc.!
The input form for the beam is the AutoCAD drawing itself! You draw your beam sketch, fill information to input blocks of beam section, rebar, rebar tie, anchor, etc. You can also copy your sketch to make another beam!
Then, based on your sketch, the JTBW_DetailBeam command will generate the final drawing of the beam.
Moreover, the beam's rebars will be tagged properly by the "Rebar Callout" blocks. Therefore, to create the Rebar Table (or Barlist Table), it is just one click away by running the JTBW_GenRebarTables.
This plugin is aimed at students and professionals of engineering and architecture. Both will achieve high productivity when making structural details of reinforced concrete. The drawing made by the plugin is a drawing of great detail and precision that follows the ACI315 standard. This is the standard that governs the detailing of reinforced concrete elements.
ACI: with this option, the drawing will be governed by the act 315 standards. If this option is unchecked the drawing will be made even if it does not comply with the regulations. However, the drawing will not be made when the number of longitudinal rods horizontally or vertically is less than 2 pieces (it is recommended to always check this option).
2.Then later on the layout was changed i did beam offset in first floor and increased the size of the column, i can generate the drawings in RCDC and save the details in DXF format, but this dxf file can't be opened in AutoCAD
The dimensions of the original beam can be found in Example 4.5.The beam will be modified to reduce the length from 30m to 29.82m. We will then import some loads from an external file and carry out a detailed design of the beam in the following order:
The beam file which was put together in Example 4.5 is 30m long as a generic beam for use on a scheme. In this example we are going to use the same beam profile for a slightly different span of 29.82m.
The next step is to import some loads created in a line beam analysis. Click on the Import Loads from SLD file toolbar button in the navigation toolbar which will open a file browser.
The graphical results show the design moment line in green which means the beam design passes for the positive (sagging) moment case. Looking at the top right of the form, we can see that this design of beam requires 26.49 tonnes of reinforcement.
We will start by adding a third layer of reinforcement to the top of the beam. First of all drag the red section line on the elevation with the mouse, holding the left mouse button down, to the left end of the beam.
The graphical results show the design stress line is now red because the beam design does not quite pass for the sagging case by a small margin. The user may want to consider whether to make further adjustments to such a beam. Repeating this for the hogging case shows that the beam still passes for hogging.
In this example we have changed the length of a standard beam to fit a specific structure then carried out a detailed design. During the design process we have modified the reinforcement by adding, removing and curtailing bars. We have also checked the design with a reduced concrete strength at 14 days in accordance with clause 3.1.2 of EN 1992-1-1.
DeltabeamTool is an application for full AutoCAD to draw DELTABEAM composite beams onto general layouts and section drawings. The user can choose the beam type and view, and select the start and end points. The application has tools to modify the inclined beam ends and web hole locations. DeltabeamTool automatically gives each DELTABEAM a unique number. The user can add beam schedules to the layout drawing or export it to Excel. Drawings of each DELTABEAM can be created according to the layout drawing.
Note: When used for mechanical supports, load capacities of brackets, fittings and other supporting elements should be in compliance with the American Standard Code for Pressure Piping. Clamps are designed to be used with W, M, S & HP Shape beams, Standard C & Misc. MC Channels, Angles & Structural Tees. Clamps must be used in pairs where indicated. For beam clamps with HG finish, standard hardware is EG finish. For optional stainless steel hardware, please contact the factory for availability.
