Torsional Stability Stays


 

MasterPort contains some additional functions for the positioning of torsional stability stays in the Appendix G design check (or Annex B-B in EC design). When an Appendix G brief is active, the torsional restraints tab becomes visible. The positions of torsional stability stays may only be located coincident with a lateral restraint. The restraint numbers are shown in the member diagram. Stays can be added graphically in the member diagram area. With the MasterPort Stay@ button depressed, clicking on the member near a restraint position will apply a stay indicated by a black dot. To remove the stay, simply click again on the black dot.
