Question

Is there any feature for quick generation of a girder grillage or a grid?


Answer:

Yes, you can quickly create surfaces, grids, or girder grillages by extruding lines and members. However, if you want to generate an irregular grid with extended specifications, the Generate Grid dialog box is recommended.

In our case, we would like to create a regular grid using the Extrude Member into Grid function.

In the Extrude Member into Grid dialog box, you can specify various settings.

As a result, we obtain the desired grid and can thus continue modeling.
