Build your first bay.
The steps below follow Structure+ 1.2.0. The video may show an earlier version, so a panel can look slightly different.
- Open Extensions → Structure+ → Structure+ Palette and choose the Scaffold tab.
- Pick Ringlock Standard, choose Spigot or Sleeve and a height, and click in open space to place the first standard.
- Pick Ledger. Click a connection on the standard to start a run, then click along to place ledgers. The endpoint standard is created for you. Press Esc to end the run.
- Keep clicking connections to run ledgers round the bay. Standards are added at each end as you go.
- Pick Platform, click a ledger, then click to fill the bay with decking.
Keep building.
Read the status bar at the bottom of the SketchUp window: every tool says there what it wants next, and what is wrong if something is.
- Brace: choose the rise, click a rosette, then one that many rings up or down.
- Stair, Ladder, Guardrail and Toe Board attach to existing ledgers.
- Duplicate Sideways and Duplicate Upwards copy a finished bay across or up a lift.
