Channels

Changes the selected shape to a channel member.

Angles

Changes the selected shape to an angle member.

Tee Shapes

Changes the selected shape to a tee shape member.

Double Angles

Changes the selected shape to double angle shape members.

Square Tubing

Round Bar

Changes the selected shape to a solid round bar member.

Flat Bar

Changes the selected shape to a solid flat bar member.

Pipe

Changes the selected shape to a pipe shape member.

Channel Lip

Changes the selected shape to a concrete rectangular shape.

Custom Section

Changes the selected shape to a custom section shape. If you have not defined a custom shape, this option is unavailable.

Section Data Table

Changes the selected shape to the data selected, such as Wide Flange. The list changes based on the Section Type setting and populates the Member Size list.

Member Size

Changes the selected shape to the size of the selected structural member, such as W10X22.

The Section Type, Section Data Table, and Member Size all work in conjunction with one another. To change a member to a different Section Type, you need to select the Section Type, then select the Section Data Table, and then select the specific Member Size for the change. The software updates selected members in the 3D model based on the selected data when you click Apply.
