Reuse of Structure Blocks
CT structure blocks are stored in the database/workspace, the same as CT basic blocks, and are available for other CT structure blocks. This allows building a model library for a modular and hierarchical model structure. If a CT basic block or CT structure block is changed in the database/workspace, the change is automatically applied to all models in the database/workspace. Maintenance of the CT blocks is thus required at one place only.
Finished models whose CT blocks may not be replaced with newer versions, must therefore be stored in a different database/workspace.
