Options available in StruBIM Shear Walls
The “BIMserver.center” section of the main toolbar, available in both the “Shear walls” and “Coupling beams” tabs, contains the features required to use the program in conjunction with other BIMserver.center tools.


Updating
Update the information contained in the "Main (Initiator)" file template previously imported into the project, and import any additional templates if required.
The update process launches an import wizard for shear walls and connecting beams, similar to the one that appears when creating a new project, allowing you to carry out the "Shear wall selection", the "Connecting beam selection" and the "Options" configuration.
