    Default Complicated roof plan

    Hi All,
    I am doing a complicated structural project for a church. It is one level plus a mezzanine with 8 roof levels, 3 of those curved plu girts and bracing. So, my norm is to asscoiate framing to a level for the one million plus architectural changes that come. This makes my life easier obviously. There are some roof levels that I may want to include on the same plan. For example roof level 1, roof level 2 and the mezz are all within a 1'-0" of each other. But, they reference their respective levels. This creates a tagging issue for me. My tag includes the type and elevation BUT the elevation references the level it is asscoiated to. So I can have two members at two different heights with the same noting the same offset elevation. It is at the nightmare stage in my mind right now. Any thoughts on how others are approahing with RS? Short of all manual options?

    Default Re: Complicated roof plan

    I'm currently on a project with lots of steel beams stacked with in the same level. I was using the beam annotation tool to tag the beam with my beam tag and tag one end of the beam with a spot elevation tag. Then I just added simple section cut to show that the beams were stacked. the shop guys figured it out.
