Omitting Beam Segment and Column Segment from Schedule of Elements

[Voytek]

Could anyone please advise how to omit Beam Segment and Column Segment from Schedule of Elements in AC25. I just would like to show Beam and Column. Thanks.

Modify the Element IDs of those Beams and Beam Segments so that the Element ID of those Beams and Beam Segments you do not want in the Schedules have a certain value, then add to the Criteria:

Element ID "IS NOT" <whatevervalue>

Then, those Beams and Beam Segments that have <whatevervalue> for Element ID will not be included.

If you do not have to use the Element ID for this, you can also create a new Property, make it available for Beams, and use that, set one value for Beams and Beam Segments you want to be included in the Schedule, and set another value for Beams and Beam Segments you do not want to be included in the Schedule. Then modify the Criteria to filter out the Beams and Beam Segments you do not want in the Schedule.

Thank you so much!

Finally got the answer by both ways.

Actually, I have tried this by using ID option but may be I was making mistake somewhere in scheme setting dialog box.

Sharing both screen shots here.

The AND and OR logical operators have priorities: the AND logical operation is executed before the OR logical operation.

You need to put your two "Element Type" criteria in parentheses, and also put your two "Element ID" criteria in parentheses:

 

If you don't use parentheses, then the following will be included in the Schedule:

1. All Beams

2. All Beams Segments the Element ID of which start with "BEAM"

3. All elements the Element ID of which start with "HA"

However, if you use parentheses like on the above screenshot, then the following will be included in the Schedule:

All Beams and Beams Segments the Element ID of which starts with "BEAM" or "HA".

Actually, from your previous screenshots, this may not even be what you want. Maybe you want the following will be included in the Schedule:

1. All Beams the Element ID of which starts with "BEAM".

2. All Beams Segments the Element ID of which starts with "HA".

Let me know if this is the case.

Yes, I will keep parentheses part in my mind.

Element ID criteria option is good and what is needed here.

Thank you so much!

There is another issue regarding listing, I will come up soon with screen shots.
