The document provides instructions for adjusting three generic structural models. The adjustments involve reconfiguring module columns and braces in one reference model and assigning rigid stool properties. The same adjustments are then implemented in the other two models using a provided macro. Specific adjustments for the post-lift and lift models are also noted, such as activating supports and modifying member properties.

1. General
1. Use the analysis program’s interactive graphics
modeller to perform the adjustments on one of the
three generic models (the Reference Model).
2. Only changes required are:
a. Possible reconfiguration of module columns and
vertical braces assigning already-defined
candidate properties.
b. Assignment of Rigid Stool type to at least one
transverse row of Stools
3. Generic model candidate element properties and
load definitions are retained without change.
4. Once the adjustments are completed in the
Reference Model, implement them in the other two
models. (A macro-assisted realignment Workbook
has been developed for this purpose.)
Post-Lift Model
1. Activate the Btm-of-
Stool supports along with
hog/sag displacements
STEP 2: CONFIGURATION ADJUSTMENT
Lift Model
1. Activate the Lift Point
supports
2. Activate reduced Fy in
members framing into
Lift Points (Fy is yield
strength)
Rigid Stool (typ)
