With this objects (36 kb) user could generate 44 basic types and much more variations of trusses.
This is demonstrative version of . Just 2 basic types could be generarted.
For full version see item 'Truss set' on objectsonline.com category 'Construction Elements'.
Dimension to braces, any number of spans.
Opportunity to see preliminary load accounting in 2D.
3 types of loading are available: -all joints are loaded(equal load)
-one joint is loaded
-two joints are loaded(equal load)
Each truss could be supported by 2 different joints or just by one joint (console truss).
Load reactions in support points and each brace are calculated automatically.
If load accounting in 2D is off the usual 2D view (rectangular) will be
generated in 2D.

Thumbnails macros file Truss_uni_th.jpg (291 kb) should be loaded in any active
ArchiCAD libraries to correct UI script work.
Macros file Truss_univ_account.gdl (88 kb) should be loaded in any active
ArchiCAD libraries to correct work of load calculation.
Both files are enclosed.
Friendly interface script. To use with ArchiCAD 7.0.

anyone have a bunch of parametric 2d hardware/fasteners, lag, carriage bolts, hilti anchors, etc? - or know where I can find them?

(I noticed a screw was added in MSA's parts for SE9).

Also related, can anyone tell me how (cut-paste gdl code) to get old parts to recognize background pens 0 and -1?? (in plan and section views)

seemed a very active forum for objects and ideas that stopped very abruptly. Was wondering if posts were going elsewhere.

Most discussions are like that. Once 90% of the links people have found are posted, the traffic slows down.

I suppose the other thing is that as far as the objects I have posted in this thread are concerned, I haven't had any requests for modifications or improvements for a while.

I came across a couple of objects for showing services in suspended ceilings in my collection today that I had forgotten about. They maybe of interest to folks I shall see if I can improve em' a bit to have something show in 3d as well as 2d.
