Before creating the anchor bolt plan, create a model view that is in the xy-plane.
On the Drawings & reports tab, click .
Double-click a saved settings master drawing that has been created for anchor bolt plans, for example, anchor_bolt_plan.
Open the General Arrangement Drawing Properties dialog box by clicking Edit drawing properties... Edit drawing properties
Click View
On the Anchor bolt plan tab, ensure that the option Show as anchor bolt plan is set to Yes.
Define the drawing as an anchor bolt plan when you are creating the drawing. You cannot convert a general arrangement drawing to an anchor bolt plan afterwards.
Modify the enlarged part view scale, if necessary.
If needed, set the Create detail views option to Yes to create separate detail views.
If you select No , Tekla Structures dimensions the anchor bolts in the enlarged view. Tekla Structures groups similar detail views so that similar details are drawn only once.
Set the Detail view scale.
Click Save to save the changes in the saved settings file.
Click OK to close the Master Drawing Properties dialog box.
Click Create drawings.
Select one view in the xy-plane.
If you select some other type of view or several views, Tekla Structures displays a warning message and the anchor bolt plan is not created.
Click Create.
Tekla Structures creates the anchor bolt plan.
Tekla Structures creates bolt dimensions in the anchor bolt plan in the directions of the bolt group coordinate system. If the angle between the bolt group and the view coordinate systems is not orthogonal, Tekla Structures adds angle dimensions to the detail view. Use the advanced option XS_ANCHOR_BOLT_PLAN_USE_VIEW_COORDSYS_FOR_BOLT_DIMENSIONS to create the dimensions in the x and y directions of the main view.
