ROOF PURLIN - DRAFTER MODELING HELP

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

1,5 months old using Archicad 21.

Could you please help me model purlin for roof in industrial factory, like attached picture.

One more, I modeled these purlin in Tekla, and I export to IFC file, to import into Archicad.
How can I insert these purlin into the archicad model and use them as if the archicad's elements? Can or can't?

Thanks!

There is a PDF file that deals with interoperability. It was written years ago, but I think most of the principles and concepts should be the same today. On page 32 it talks about AC-Tekla workflow specifically:

Thank you very much.
I want to import/insert many IFC files (from Tekla or something sofware) into 1 Archicad's project model?
How could I do? Please help!
