SDS/2 2015 Connections
Discuss and demonstrate new connection design in SDS/2 v2015
Focus not on new connections
Focus on getting SDS/2 to design around parameters
Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:

Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:
System
From user point of view, system designed connections work the same between SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015Slide4
SDS/2 2015 Connections
Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:
User: v7.3
Design a system generated connection
Toggle User and make modifications
Some geometrical changes may occur within screen
Connection never goes through process again
Design Calculations will state:Slide5

SDS/2 2015 Connections
Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:
There is no “User” connection in v2015. Instead it is a system connection with connection design locks set.
Refer to these as User ModifiedSlide7

Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:
User Modified: v2015
Design a system generated connection
Modify lockablesSlide8
SDS/2 2015 Connections
Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:
User Modified: v2015
Design a system generated connection
Modify lockables
On-the-fly design around lockables, which replaces the need for Redesign button
Connection can still fail: Locked connection has too many restraints
If input connection type is NOT Auto Standard, system will maintain lockables. Will NOT change to Plain End.
Process and create solids for solids creation and framing situation
Design Calculations reflect system connection with
NO
“USER CONNECTION” statementSlide9
SDS/2 2015 Connections
Comparing SDS/2 v7.3 and SDS/2 v2015:
User Modified: v2015
Design Calculations reflect system connection with
NO
“USER CONNECTION” statement
However, the Design Calculation will state the number of variables locked via Member Edit.
NOTE: If there are lockables set and the connection type is changed, the system will currently reset the connection. This means if there are locked fields, those will be removed and updated to the new variables for the connection. However, in some specific cases, those fields could be maintained. For example, rows of bolts for a welded clip angle to bolted clip angle. Slide10

Design system connection
Copy all User Defined Connection specifications to member
Validation on specifications
Go through design without looking at user fields in User Defined Connection
Copy user fields from User Defined Connection and replace system values
Some geometrical changes like making an angle longer, etc.

Connection designed around lockables
Design Calculation reflects a system connection with
NO
“USER CONNECTION” statement
However, the Design Calculation will state the number of variables locked via User Defined.Slide21
