ishpalsingh,
This image is a lot clearer.
You are apparently using a pole framing building system with
standardized parts such as axis connector and knee connector.
I am unfamiliar with these connectors as I have never seen
a building made with this particular building system.

I did a search on the Internet using key words like
"HS Unilog Rafter" and "Knee Connector" to try to educate myself
but could not find any reference to this building system.

I would like to try to help you model your building in Archicad
but I really need more information in order to do so.

If you could draw a detail showing the geometry
of this connector, it would help.

Thank you,
Peter Devlin

ishpalsingh,
I tried again on the Internet and found "Unilog".
It is a pole framing system and I might be able
to figure what these connectors are and therefor
how to model them in Archicad.

ishpalsingh,
I think I understand these connectors and they are very easy to make
In Archicad. You can either make the complete pole frame including
the connectors using TrussMaker or just make the connectors
using TrussMaker. Use the hollow section and circular profile.
The attached image is of a pole frame with connectors using TrussMaker.
