Using Structural Member Tools to Create Structural
Members
Tool palettes in AutoCAD Architecture let you quickly place beams, braces,
and columns by selecting a structural member tool with a specific style and
other predefined properties. You can also use structural member tools to
convert linework to structural members and to apply the settings of a structural
member tool to existing structural members.
