6) Additional models can be added by repeating this process.

Note Notes:

1)The procedure above assumes that section properties used in Model B are also present in Model A. All frames that have same sections defined  in both models will be pasted correctly, but slabs, walls and load assignments should be reassigned.

2) Copy operation in Model A is by default taken with respect to elevation z=0 while paste operation in Model B is taken by default with respect to the lowest/base level. This is not an issue when base level in both models is at elevation 0 but may cause some discrepancies when base elevation in both models is different than zero. In such case, user may need to apply an appropriate Delta Z to make up this difference to paste objects at the desired elevation in Model B. For example, if base level is at -12ft in both models then enter Delta Z=12ft when pasting objects into Model B so they get pasted at the desired elevation.
