Adding a Bearer Threshold

In the Scaffold Bay Global Options, you can set the bearer threshold and the material used below and above the specified threshold. This will allow you to enable Load-bearing side overrides for structural integrity.

To add a bearer threshold.

1. Go to the back-end

2. Select Global Options
   

3. In the Scaffold Bays dialog, click the Enable Load Bearing Side Overrides to enable it

4. Next, specify the Bearer Material below the threshold

5. Specify the Bearer threshold length

6. Specify the bearer material when at or above the threshold

7. Click OK
   

You can then apply these settings to existing scaffolds on a drawing by selecting the Apply Bearer Settings in the Scaffold Tab. Any newly created bays will have these settings automatically applied.
