Assemblies

An assembly is a geometrical component that can be used to combine multiple calculation elements. In addition to substructures, which may comprise any number of calculation elements, an assembly can also have its own operations, additional costs and functions.

You can edit assemblies in multiple languages when creating them or later on via the "Assembly - Properties" dialog dialog.
