Adding the Steel and Concrete Shapes to the Composite Column
Use this procedure to add the steel and concrete shapes to the composite
column.
1 Select the column, and click Structural Member tab ➤ General
panel ➤ Edit Style drop-down ➤ Edit Style .
2 Click Design Rules.
3 Click Show Details.
4 Select Unnamed under Component, and enter Component 1.
5 Under Start Shape, select 16X16 from the Name list.
6 Click Add.
A new component is added to the design rules of the column. By
default, the start and end shapes are the same as the preceding
component.
7 Select Unnamed under Component, and enter Component 2.
8 Under Start Shape for Component 2, select W8X31 from the Name
list.

Process Overview: Creating a Multi-Component Structural
Member Using Multiple Segments (Rigid Frame)
Use this example to create a rigid frame, a multi-segmented structural member
created from multiple shapes that transform at each vertex of the structural
member path.
To create the rigid frame, you convert a multi-segmented polyline to a
structural member and assign different start and end shapes to each segment
of the member as components in the design rules of the rigid frame style. A
series of nodes correspond to the start point, vertices, and the endpoint of the
member path. By assigning different shapes to segments between nodes on
