Create a Frame

The create menu provides all you need to create a new structural model including setting up grid lines, adding new columns, beams and bracing members. It also covers floor plate information including area loading and construction type. Note the word ‘Pro’ after this option. Anywhere you see the word ‘Pro’ it indicates that the feature is a Pro only feature and requires the Pro add-on to MasterFrame to access these particular items.

The same is also true of the menu items that have FE Surfaces included. These refer to the MasterFrame Finite Element Analysis add-on module which can be added to MasterFrame for creating, loading and analysing surfaces such as floor slabs or shear walls as a Finite Element mesh.
