How can materials other than the ones already defined be used in the building modeler?

Post by minhajulBP »

In the building modeller, there are only a few predefined materials. Is there a way to define materials like "se_sma" or "con_ma" and customize their properties in the building modeller option?

Dear minhajulBP,

In the Modelling Parameters module of each member you import to the Building Modeller, you may modify the material models used for the specific member, concrete and steel models may be selected. The default option may be modified and it is the one selected in the Advanced Building Modelling tab of the project's Advanced Settings. By default, the Mandel et al. nonlinear concrete model (con_ma) and the Menegotto-Pinto steel model (stl_mp) are used.
