How to mesh plenty of elements in Hypermesh?

Hello, All:

I built a REB2 in Hypermesh between two columns, and I need to build plenty of REB2 along the column height. As shown in the following figure, the green elements are REB2, I need to build REB2 at each node along the orange column (the space is the same along the column). So may I do something like array or copy for the REB2 I built in Hypermesh?

Thank you very much for your help.

Yes you can make copies by enter menu Tools>Transformation Tool

if tow columns are 2d elems you can use panel 1d>linear 1d

Hi, Tinh:

Thank you very much, it works well. Just seem will take a long time since I have 1300 copies to generate.....

May I ask how to check the REB2 direction. I know I can always create one REB2 or Update the REB2, but not sure how to check what's the direction of existing REB2. Thank you.
