Steel Plate

[Anonymous]

This is a very simple thing that's used a lot in wood framing, but I couldn't fine one in the ArchiCAD library, nor could I find it elsewhere...

You see I am a person who seeks perfection in everything, so I want my detail drawing to look very professional. I'm currently working on the roof detail and I would like the steel plates on the roof trusses. Any idea on how to achieve that?

Are you referring to the perforated pronged
gusset plates at the joints in wood trusses ?
If so, try making complex profiles of each type
of gusset you need.

Yes that is what I'm looking for. Wow, I don't know how to work with complex profile yet. Guess I got to look into it.
