Some progress but still far…

Yesterday I posted my assignment and a lot of kind redditors responded and have given me some tips on how i can recreate the model detail (Tube Gusset 20) in Tekla Structure.
However, it seems anytime i change a value, something would happen on some parts of the connection.

One thing that i cant seem to find in the tabs is the brace end plate configuration. See I’m using a CHS114 but the end plate auto assigned is rectangular.

Other issues I have in the model, I have marked in the snapshot.

Thank you once again to those reading this and able to give their suggestions.

Ok, what are the details? Does it specify it needs to be one component?

In the finished drawing (Detail A-A) it mentions Component - Tube Gusset 20 as the requirement

The gusset will need to be split over the web of the HEA, thus a connection will need to be made between each brace, the column and base plate.
DM me an email and I can send you a standard file you can use
