Custom Beams

The plugin allows you to create three kinds of parametric beams: wooden beams with many ready-to-use profiles, wooden beams with custom profile and extruded beams by drawing their section.

A control point let you graphically choose the position where the beam will tilt and where it will have the specified elevation. You can create groups of beams with a click, and choose among 5 types of different coverings: simple panel, secondary beams, sliding cover (single or multiple) and custom profile.

You can purchase a new license in the store (previous licenses are not valid, this is a major update).
