09/01/09)
The
Secondary Data - Insert Located screen is used to insert a girt or purlin
that was not located prior to "Run".

feature only will locate secondary members on the Surface. It does not locate
girts above a wall.

members will not be designed and will not automatically be Flange Braced.

Detail holes/clips on frames, re-detailing
sag angles, adding panel fasteners and any small parts.

the parts are input, further changes can be made to the End Adjustments and
Mark Numbers on the Secondary Data - Member Information screen.
