Create a Hole in a Beam

All types of Beams can include Holes. Holes can be circular or rectangular, and Holes of different shapes and sizes can appear in the same Beam.

Holes are defined after the Beam has been placed. The geometry of the Holes is defined in the Hole panel of the selected Beam’s Settings dialog box.
