Question
What is the difference between beam created using Model >Concrete, Model> General and Path Linked option?
Answer
In CIM, there are multiple methods available for modeling beams, and each method has its own behavior when the beams are assigned in a layout. Beams created using different options can sometimes lead to confusion—especially for new users—when deciding which method to adopt.
To help clarify this, we have prepared a video that explains the differences between the following beam modeling methods:
-
Model > Concrete
-
Model > General
-
Path Linked Option
Each method has its own use case depending on the modeling requirements.
