Add/Modify Bracing

Add/Modify Bracing – features for adding/modifying braces between joists or rim joists, corner braces and brace groups.

Add Strapping Bracing (external/internal side)

Add Strapping Bracing (external/internal side) – adds a brace between two selected joists on external or internal side of framing.

Default families for bracing are I_MF Strap.rvt (in Imperial projects) and M_MF Strap.rvt (in Metric projects).

Example: Select a bottom rim joist and a top rim joist to show where bracing should end. Points selected should be as close as possible to where you want the bracing ends to actually be. (I.e. If you generically select a bottom rim joist and top rim joist, bracing might not be placed where you actually want it, so select the points precisely where you want the bracing to be placed.
