Use splitting to split a part into two. You can use splitting with straight parts, polybeams and curved beams without offsets, and normal and tapered reinforcing bar groups. You can also split contour plates and concrete slabs.

Split a straight or curved part or polybeam

  1. On the Edit tab, click Split.
  2. Select the part you want to split.
  3. Pick a point for the splitting line.
  4. If you split a polybeam, check that the following are correct:
    • The position and orientation settings of the split polybeams

    • The components related to the split polybeams

Split a plate or slab

  1. On the Edit tab, click Split.
  2. Select the contour plate or concrete slab you want to split.

    Note that bent plates, lofted plates, or lofted slabs cannot be split.

  3. Pick the points you want the splitting line to go through.

    The first picked point and the last picked point need to be on an edge of the plate or slab.

Note:

Areas with chamfers, cuts, or openings cannot be split. If you try to pick points in these areas, the preview of the splitting line turns red, indicating that splitting is not possible.
