How to effectlively model a nuclear containment in SAP2000?

(OP)
Hello all,

I want to model a 3D nuclear containment in SAP2000. This includes cylindrical shell + torispherical dome + circular raft. Please give a direction to do it in a less tedious way!
I have attached the layout for representation.
Thank you!

RE: How to effectlively model a nuclear containment in SAP2000?

The best way to model this would be to use the SAP2000 Shells template. Create the necessaryifferent components in different files by File > New > Shells.
Import and combine the different components and make sure to verify that the shells are meshed together.
