Auto line contraints between slabs and columns

Auto line contraints between slabs and columns

Auto line contraints between slabs and columns

(OP)
Hi all,
I have a building with flat slab, and the columns are not located on the grid-lines. I use shell element for slab. I wonder about compatibility between the columns and the slabs, Does Etabs automatically generate auto line constraints between slabs and columns?
Thanks
Lisu

RE: Auto line contraints between slabs and columns

By default yes, auto line constraints are used in etabs. YOu can control that from the Assign menu.
