Mike Wright Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 We've just bought a load of Prolyte truss circles and I am beginning the process of converting the DWGs into truss PIOs. Before I go the whole hog and share the results up here for the greater good.....could anyone take a look at the attached and see if there are any obvious mistake?

Mike Wright Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 Thanks Rob I don't have weights for the units yet unfortunately and there is no VW cross section profile for Prolyte X30 truss so they won't be fully Braceworks compatible I am having trouble with a couple of them and wonder if anyone can help. In the attached file the sections do not quite join up properly and for the life of me I cannot work out why! The rest of them seem to be ok X30D_R200_Test.vwx Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 Hi Rob. thanks for having a look. That's what I figured was the case but it wasn't obvious why, draw a square from point to point and the seem to be within a mm of the corners The 3D geometry in the symbols is a straight copy and paste from the Prolyte DWGs if that is any help. I can also send you the files tomorrow Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 So even after a lot of fiddling around I could not get it to work UNLESS I set up the PIO as 'Insertion point is centre point'. With this checked they line up almost perfectly. Original DWG attached X30D-CIRKEL.dwg Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Attached file contains Prolyte H30V circle sections in 1/2/3/4/5/6/7m radius They all have the correct cross section and Truss Record but do not have weights as this information is not available to me. I can't vouch for their accuracy! hope they are useful to some folks H30V_-_Circles.vwx Quote Link to comment
