Course SBiM - Tendon Modeler

Unlock the power of efficient tendon modelling with the SOFiSTiK Tendon Modeler! This course will guide you through cutting-edge workflows that make tendon management in bridge and infrastructure design faster and more flexible. Learn how to manage tendon clusters easily, apply modifications across multiple tendons, and define precise properties using dynamic reference points. Discover the efficiency of adaptive paths, streamline tendon placement, and optimize designs for straight and curved alignments. With expert demonstrations and practical examples, this course will equip you with the tools to transform your tendon modelling approach and elevate your projects to the next level!

• SOFiSTiK Tendon Modeler: Learn how to manage tendon clusters efficiently, apply modifications across multiple tendons, and use various viewing options for precise tendon positioning with the integration of the Infra Browser.

• Reference Point-Based Tendon Layout: Learn to establish a tendon layout using reference points within a family. This allows for dynamic adjustments, precise tendon visualization, and vertical alignment control.

• Multiple Tendons: Master modelling multiple parallel tendons in a T-beam section using adaptive paths and layout rules to streamline tendon placement and increase flexibility.

• Tendon Layout Along an Axis: Understand how to define tendon layouts along a bridge axis, customize geometry, radius, and material, and adjust placement and symmetry for efficient structural integration.

• Reference Curve for Girder Bridge Tendons: Explore how to model tendons along a girder bridge using a guiding curve workflow, ensuring tendons stay straight and adjusting lengths when transitioning straight to curved alignments.
