QuickQnect / Tekla Specific Enhancements

  • Connection Error - An error arose where a group with 4 Beam to HSS Column all were connected.  Then one connection removed by customer and resent with new beam.  This is no longer an issue.

QNT-9687

 

  • Unexpected error - An error arose where a shear plate connection with Axial force used in Estimating.  This is no longer an issue.
  •  Check and update Vertical/Horizontal Brace Detection - We extended how the system determines a vertical or horizontal brace when received from a model.  Before this update we checked the Part Name for a letter "V" and (the word "BRACE" or "BRACING").  We added for Vertical brace has 20 <= slope <= 70 degrees and for horizontal brace has 20 <= skew <= 70 degrees.

QNT-9688

 

  • company gets overwrite if user download revit from AutoDesk and then sign up for Tekla or vice versa.  For users that are using both Revit and Tekla as the front-end of the Qnect system, the system was losing access to the company they had access to.  This has been resolved.
  • Do not allow partial success of beams on same side of column - Internally in our system, the software was identifying an issue where two joints were coming into the same point of a support.  We would identify that and hold the NoConnect reason “Inadequate space to connect beams framing to the same side of the support.“  At another point in the system we also identified that the slope exceeded what Qnect offered.  We wanted to ensure that all the joints that were getting a consistent NoConnect reason.

QNT-9633

 

  • Mandated Details: Fix pictures, Enforce this detail preference did not work as expected.  - For Mandated preference settings updated the pictures to have more details as shown.  In addition, the Enforce this detail option was updated.  Before if this preference was set to yes in a mandated defined connection and it failed a limit state it was supposed to not generate a working connection and just let the user know that their mandated connection did not meet all the limited states.  There was a scenario where Bolt Optimization was allowing the software to generate a working connection.  This has been resolved by not generating a working connection if the Enforce this detail setting = Yes

QNT-9603 I

QNT-9603 II

 

  • Report ConnSampleCalcsNoTopLink pdf downloading not working - For a single connection the PDF link on the Detail Calcs report was not working.  This has been resolved.

QNT-9585

 

  • DetermineConnections: Not combining nearby connections into single group.  For instance, this beam to embed was not included in the group that should be a single group or joints to be designed.  This has been resolved.

QNT-9672 I

  • In this case the beam to column flange W8 (bottom) was not combined with the rest of the group.  This was also resolved.

QNT-9672 II

 

  • web-environment: Change text on reports related to Moment names (labels)

QNT-9621
