ProtaSteel 2021 - Quick Start Guide 10
10. Insert Sag rods
In ProtaStructure, the main steel members are modelled & designed; usually omitting the minor or non-
structural members to keep the model size manageable & efficient. After the model is transferred to
ProtaSteel, you might then want to add ancillary steel members such as sag rods.
We will insert some sag rods between the girts along axis 3 :
➢ Double-click on 3D View in the Explorer pane to go to the default 3D view
➢ Right-click on Sag Rod icon
→
This will expose the Sag Rod Macro Dialog.
➢ Key in the offsets 50mm & Number of Intervals = 3 (as shown below)
