How the Support Beams are modeled

Using the CV Curve tool I was able to create a line that I could modify the length.

I then created a cylinder and placed it under the line.

I selected both the cylinder and line I extruded the former, allowing me to modify the divisions and create a bent support beam,



The cylinders radius was decreased to fit the depiction of the orthographs.


Using the Duplicate Special tool I was able to neatly plant the beams around the main geometry.
