Switch U-Value

Shows step-by-step how to swap U-values of components of this structural level within the activated structural level.

Before you begin

You want to exchange U-values for the activated structural level for selected components.

Requirements:

You are at the desired structure level.

Navigate to:

Toolbar ➤ U-value Exchange

Procedure

Click in the Toolbar.

The Switch U-value dialog opens.
Select the component whose U-value you want to swap under U-values of the selected section.
Select the component whose U-value you want to use for the exchange under Available U-values.
Click Switch U-value.

Results

The selected component has the newly assigned U-value in the activated structural level.
