For now, the Checkbot works for a wide variety of connections/joints. However, please take into account yet unsupported functionality.
Bulk selection
- The bulk selection functionality may not identify all connections properly, or fail to import all relevant entities (plates, bolts, welds). In such cases, please use the One selection instead.
- The Bearing Member is chosen automatically. Currently, the only way to change it is to use the One selection instead, then it will be the first member selected.
- Up to 30 unique load cases can be calculated in parallel, you may start to experience delays in calculation times above this limit.
Viewer
- A connection that has been calculated in the Checkbot and consequently opened in the Viewer requires recalculation, the results are not stored.
- There is no clear indication of the direction of input loads in the Viewer.
Import
- The import of loads directly from the CAD model is not currently supported.
- The following limitations for the general BIM link may apply as well
