Ok - in my case we were lucky to find a good copy of the position on another of the lithuanian colleagues. We syncronize the Dietrichs work between 3 users - me and 2 in Lithuania.

I have the exact same problem (or more preceisely my colleague in Lithuania has). But our projects are syncronized so what she is making is comming on my computer - and thus also this empty position. I didn't try the backup file, because that would probably not contain the changes she made yesterday.

Have any of you studied BauBuche? It is a very interesting material. Pricewise it is a little more expensíve than a similar beam, made from glulam GL28 - so the dimensions does not get "small enough" to make the beam cheaper than glulam. Because bending in many cases takes over as dominating factor. It looks like BauBuche works best compared with glulam, at high loads. One advantage is that glulam often will need reinforcement steel plates over supports, but BauBuche don't need it, because of it's high strength.

Another thing is that I think that BauBuche have aesthetic advantages over glulam - looks better for visible beams. And that is also worth something, I think. I also think that BauBuche maybe is cheaper to use for massive wall elements than the traditional massive wood elements - at least compared to prices for Danish massive wooden elements. I don't know what elements from KLH costs - anyone knows?

Hmmmm - BFU?? Not sure about that. Do you mean Plywood? Or maybe I don't have the BFU texture, because my Dietrichs is a version 7.03??

Hi.

Ok - I will try with BFU. Oh yes sorry - I thought Photobucket resized the picture.

Hi.

Just wondering if anyone have textures for BauBuche, for beams, massive wooden walls (with beech surface as well as with layered surface) etc.???

Ok - that was also something like that I was thinking. But I was not sure if maybe a layout could be imported. But I assume that if I delete everything in the model space then the layouts perhaps would be empty also.

One question: Is it possible to use the "layout" sheets, to insert into Dietrichs or it has to be from model space?

So if I want to have just 1st floor and save it as dxf, to import to Dietrichs, can I:
- Delete all sheets, so just layout sheet for 1st floor is left and then use that.
- Or maybe I have to work only in model space and delete all the drawings that is not 1st floor, then save to dxf to import to Dietrichs.
??

Thank you very much for the help.

Can you delete the attachment, so it is not available for others? I have downloaded it.

Hmmm - ok I try. WinRar Zip archive?? For some reason my 7zip does not appear to work anymore, not sure why. Should have a look at it sometime, when I have time.

Hi.

Can one of you convert this drawing to version 2010 or earlier? Because my Cad-program cannot open it, if it is saved as a too new AutoCad version. The customer is not working with this architect more, so maybe she cannot get the drawing in another version.

Oh - extension .dwg is not allowed, so I cannot attach the file. :wink:

Ok - simply copy the content from one folder to another, when I have created the project 14002. But I assume that I will have to change the file names (for example plf drawings, positions etc.) from 14V01 to 14002 - but that is also possible.

Hi.

I have a system with project numbers for the projects "that goes real". In many cases it can be convenient to create a temporary project, maybe to make some drawings for an offer or to make a case study for a possible project. But this temporary project should have another project number system than the "real projects". But then maybe the customer accepts the offer and the project and then I would need to upgrade this project from "other projects" to a actual project. So for example project number for the temporary project is 14V01, but when upgraded to actual project, it should have number 14002.
Is that possible, or is it better to continue with the project number 14V01??

Yes, I am aware that center of gravity for wall has another color than the other center of gravity. It is mostly a conveniance question. But with what you say, I could in princip just select all concrete in D-cam, change color to something else and then change color back to concrete. That wouldn't take long time.

Well - maybe not necessary, but it can be a little confusing to look at 3 or more center of gravity points on the wall, because I use the wall center of gravity to place the lifting inserts after. So it would be nice to be able to "clear the board" first, before I calculate all walls center of gravity.

Hi.

Just wondering - is it possible in wall design or somewhere else to delete all previous center of gravity points and start on a fresh??

I think - but I am not sure, that is I check the weight of inside and outside layer of concrete sandwich elements in D-Cam in Object info, this creates points if gravity for each of these layers? But then when I am ready with the project, I would like in wall design to create center of gravity for all walls and for the complete wall. But then, there will be several points. So thinking if it would be possible to "clean the board" at that point??

Ok thanks - I will have a look when I continue the project.

Hi.

Ok - it is wall 3 on GF1.

Hi. I have several walls and they all come out fine, when I put them on the drawings. But one wall, comes out only with everything else than the wall it self. Sections, building overview, section arrows etc. are fine, but the wall surface is not in the stored image....

How to fix that one??

Best regards, Thorvald.

Ok - there was also a k00 file that was missing for position 8. Recovering only the gbd-file didn't help, but recovering also the k00 file, did the job as far as I can see.
