Draw Stirrup
Program draws the stirrups in columns automatically, according to the
standards determined in the earthquake code. Besides, if necessary (it will be
necessary in polygon columns) the user can add S-irons easily by the draw Stirrup
command.
e.g. Let us cancel the S-Irons in the above column and draw stirrup as shown
on the right.
Explode the column on the column application plan.
Delete the S-irons.
Click Stirrup from the Reinforcement submenu under the Draw menu.
Click the longitudinal reinforcement circles that you want to tie by the
stirrup in an order. When you click the first circle again, the stirrup will be
drawn.
