Metal Decking

Happy Father's Day

Does anybody knows if there exist a library part, even if commercially available, to depict corrugated metal; the type used for concrete deck slabs.

My pleasure. I should upload this to the repository. BTW I could not locate anything in the library, 77. Can you be more specific. Thanks.

Geoff-

Thanks for the metal pan deck library part!

If you add a parameter for the roof slope (say 'Z' and set it to angular 0.0000) and then add "ROTY Z" to the beginning of your 3D script the deck can now be sloped to follow the joist slope. I tried it and it works great.

As already stated, there ARE the corrugated sheet objects in the standard library ...

Great work, Geoff
