RonWilson Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I use 2018. I have 8"x8" posts in a rectangular configuration supporting a roof. I want to add angled bracing to the posts at the beam line. It is a common construction detail and seems it should be easy. However, I have tried all types of beams and none can be rotated to a 45 degree angle. There is an angle function but it only moves the beam in a horizontal direction and not vertical. Is it possible to do this? Thanks, Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Consider a sloped soffit to represent the simple brace. DJP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonWilson Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Thanks David! The soffit command worked great and I was able to show the brackets. Ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
