Working on a roof truss model and i want to convert the span of the truss
in to and interger ie 16' in 16. If my education serves me correctly 16'/1'
equals 16. In my GDL script however, it returns something like 26' - 8 17/32". What am I missing? Thanks in advance. Great program though.
Thanks
Dave

I have no idea how you are getting the 26'+ value, but when you divide a length parameter by another length parameter you still have a length value which will be internally expressed in meters. To get the integer value you have to write INT(16'/1'). (I assume that these are just representative constants for some variables you haven't identified.)

Matthew,
Thanks for the reply, I tried INT earlier and got the same result.
See attached: In this instance A = 16'
