Project directory structure

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

A number of directories should be added to your project filing structure to contain the files related to Structural Modeller and the other supported Bentley Building products.  These are:

 

Location

Description

{Project Settings Folder}\CADtools_Ustn\Triforma\

Folder required to hold configuration data for Bentley Triforma and the Bentley Building products.  A number of subdirectories will be added to this directory.

{ Project CAD files folder}\triforma_model\

A folder containing all the files which make up the 3d model of the structure.

{ Project CAD files folder}\triforma_sections\

A folder containing all the files which are 2d extractions from the model.

 

NOTE: Previous versions of the CADtools Structural manual contained spelling errors in this section.  The manual did not consistently refer to triforma-model or triforma_model (note the dash ‘–‘, instead of the underscore ‘_’ ).  All references have now been rationalised to ‘triforma_model’ (and correspondingly triforma_sections).  The configuration of CADtools Structural for Structural Modeller XM 8.9.4 has also been updated to reflect this.
