ProtaSteel 2021 - Quick Start Guide 37
As a result, the clashing elements will be left selected (in red). Generally, collision occurs when two or
more elements overlap each other. It usually occurs when connections are not made yet. For example,
before the haunch connection was made, the beam end flange & web plate is overlapping into the
column (as shown below).
If a Clash Check is performed by selecting both the elements, they will remain selected after the check.

You can select the object(s) specified in the result report and automatically navigate to it in the model.
30. Detail Item Manager

function to create exploded drawings of the connection with different views & detail information such
as dimensions, location of bolts, welds, etc.
