Column elevation

Bruce
Expert

How do I find out the elevation of a column in scripting?

 

Slabs have SLAB_ELEVATION_TOP, beams have BEAM_ELEVATION_TOP, etc...but I can't find anything for columns.  What am I missing?

I haven't tried it but does combining GLOB_ELEVATION with the COLU_...HEIGHT give you the right answers?

Could try placing Elevation Label 25 on a Column, then open the Label and inspect the Master Script for example   ?     Column, Beam and Slab Parameters | GRAPHISOFT GDL Center

GLOB_ELEVATION is what I'm looking for.  Thanks for that.
