RISAFoundation,
New,
Modeling
RISAFoundation
includes
the
added
ability
to
move
selected
foundation
elements.
This
includes
beams,
wall
footings,
piles,
pedestals,
slabs,
etc.
To
access
the
move
tools,
click
on
the
Modify
tab
in
the
toolbar.
There
are
3
primary
ways
to
move
elements:
1.
Move
by
Global
selection
is
a
straight
forward
option
that
allows
a
user
to
move
selected
items
by
entering
the
exact
movement
increments
in
the
X
and
Z
directions.
In
the
demonstration
below,
we
entered
“5”
for
the
X
direction.
2.
Move
by
Point
to
Point
selection
allows
a
user
to
graphically
move
selected
items
by
clicking
from
one
point
to
another.
As
demonstrated
below,
the
Move
by
Point
to
Point
selection
is
used
to
move
the
footings
and
beams
from
Grids
B
and
C
to
Grids
C
and
D.
3.
Move
by
Rotate
selection
is
another
self-explanatory
option
that
allows
a
user
to
move
selected
items
at
a
specified
angle
to
the
horizontal
Z
axis
with
an
origin
choice
of
Coordinates,
Center
of
Selection,
and
Click
to
Locate.
Demonstrated
below,
we
again
moved
the
selection
so
that
the
footing
would
now
be
rotate
90
degrees.
This
was
achieved
by
entering
an
angle
of
“90”
degrees
and
an
origin…
