Tekla API: Create Column with Code Example

To create a column in Tekla using the API, you can use the following code snippet:

using Tekla.Structures.Model;

public class ColumnCreator
{
    public static void CreateColumn(double x, double y, double z, double width, double depth, double height)
    {
        Model model = new Model();

        Beam column = new Beam(new Point(x, y, z), new Point(x, y, z + height));
        column.Profile.ProfileString = 'RECT ' + width + ' ' + depth;
        column.Name = 'Column';

        model.CommitChanges();
    }
}

This code creates a rectangular column with the specified dimensions and position in the Tekla model. You can call this method with the desired parameters to create a column with the API.
