3
Select a slab/roof slab style.
4
Specify a value for Bound Spaces:
Then…
If you want to…
select Yes.
allow the slab/roof slab to be used as a bounding object for
associative spaces
select No.
prevent the slab/roof slab from being used as a bounding
object for associative spaces
select By Style.
use the bounding settings from the slab or roof slab style
NOTE For more information on associative spaces, see
“
Generating Associative Spaces
” on page 1587
.
5
Select Projected or Direct for Mode.
If you select Projected, the X,Y coordinates of the first point you specify are projected to a Z value of the
current base height. This establishes the insertion point. The second point establishes the baseline. All
subsequent points are projected onto a plane established by the baseline and the specified slope angle. This
mode is provided for architects who wish to lay out a slab/roof slab by tracing over a plan drawing.
If you select Direct, the points you specify become the vertices of the slab perimeter.
6
Expand Dimensions.
7
Enter a value for Thickness.
8
Enter a value for the vertical offset distance from the insertion point for Vertical Offset.
9
Enter a value for the horizontal offset distance from the insertion point for Horizontal Offset.
10
Select the justification:
Then…
If you want to align the …
select Top.
top of the slab/roof slab with the first specified point
select Center.
center of the slab/roof slab with the first specified point
select Bottom.
bottom of the slab/roof slab with the first specified point
select Slopeline.
slopeline of the slab/roof slab with the first specified point
NOTE This justification is used only for inserting a slab/roof slab and is not retained as a parameter of the inserted
object. Justification is intended primarily for Direct mode.
The slopeline is the position of the slab/roof slab baseline relative to its bottom face. The thickness offset
in the style determines the distance between the baseline and the bottom face.
11
Enter a value for the height of the slab/roof slab insertion point for Base Height.
This is available only when you select Projected mode.
12
Select a direction, or define how the slab/roof slab is drawn relative to the baseline.
13
Enter a value for the depth of the overhang for Overhang.
14
Select a style for Perimeter edge.
15
If you selected the Projected mode, expand Slope, and enter values for Rise, Run, or Angle to define the
slope of the slab/roof slab.
16
Specify the start point of the slab/roof slab.
The start point is the insertion point and the start of the baseline. The start point also determines the
location of the default pivot point for the slab/roof slab.
17
Specify a second point to define the first edge (baseline).
