Figure II-3
Curved walls drawn in Revit (Figure II-3) will be divided into a number of straight walls while
being exported to struXML file, as shown in Figure II-3. This is the way curved walls are
represented in FEM-Design.
Figure II-4 shows the convention of the local coordinate system that curved walls will be assigned
with in FEM-Design.
