Изолированная конструкция

 Причиной написать данный пост послужил следующий комментарий на одном из блогов:


Серьёзно сложно?! Удалять фрагменты схемы, запускать каждый раз расчет и смотреть ушла проблема или нет?! Это не наш метод, ведь Robot позволяет элегантно решить данную задачу.

Дорожная карта Robot - весна 2021

 Опубликована публичная дорожная карта для Robot  и можно сказать. что в ней есть несколько действительно стоящих и долгожданных вещей. Например, планируется открыть доступ к некоторым алгоритмам по расчету железобетонных конструкций. Это поможет привлечь энтузиастов для внедрения отсутствующих норм расчета. Также планируют существенно перебрать аналитическую модель в Revit, что позволит делать просто немыслимые вещи, как назначать аналитику для лестниц.
