Splitting Structure Insulation

Split Insulation lets you split structure insulation to create separate insulation features.

  1. In the Insulations box, select insulations (structure panel insulation and structure profile insulation) to split.

  2. In the Cutting elements box, select cutting elements.

    You can select a structure plate, a plane, a surface, or an output profile as a cutting element.

    Notes:
    • You can select multiple cutting elements.
    • The selected cutting element must fully intersect the insulation.
    • The cutting element must not intersect the insulation multiple times. In other words, the selected cutting element should not split the insulation in more than two parts.
    • You can select an output profile created at a different elevation from the insulation. The profile is projected on the insulation, in normal direction to the plane on which it is created.

  3. Click OK.
    • If the active context is a 3D shape representation, the new insulation features are created under it.
    • If the active context is a physical product, the new insulation features are created under the representation of the parent insulation.
    • If multiple insulation features from different insulation 3D parts are split, the new insulation features are created under the respective insulation representations.
