CroSec_Beam Properties |
The CroSec_Beam type exposes the following members.
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | A | cross sectional area |
| alpha_lt | imperfection factors according to EC3 for lateral torsional buckling |
| alpha_y | imperfection factors according to EC3 in y-direction |
| alpha_z | imperfection factors according to EC3 in z-direction |
| Ay | equivalent shear Area in local y-direction (normally horizontal) for considering shear deformation |
| Az | equivalent shear Area in local y-direction (normally horizontal) for considering shear deformation |
| color |
user defined color of the cross section
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| Cw | second order warping moment |
| dims |
cross section dimensions
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| ecce_loc |
set/get local eccentricity of cross section
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| elemIds |
return list of element identifiers to which the cross section is to be attached.
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| family |
set/get the family of the cross section
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| familyID | unique identifier of cross section. Excluded country in order to avoid problems in case of user defined families
which consist of cross sections of different countries (Inherited from CroSec.) |
| guid |
GUID of the cross section
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| hasEccent |
return true of cross section has a locally defined eccentricity
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| Ipp | torsional moment of inertia |
| IsValid |
return true of the cross section is valid (has e.g. non-zero area)
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| iy | radius of gyration about y-axis |
| Iyy | moment of inertia about local Y-axis |
| iz | radius of gyration about z-axis |
| Izz | moment of inertia about local z-axis (normally vertical) |
| material |
set/get material of the element
(Overrides CroSecmaterial.) |
| materialName | name of the basic material attached to the cross section (Overrides CroSecmaterialName.) |
| name |
set/get the name of the cross section
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| nDims |
number of dimensional
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
 | nProps |
return the number of properties of the cross section
(Overrides CroSecnProps.) |
| product |
type of production used for the cross section. This defines the alpha_y/z-values and influences buckling strength.
|
| props |
default cross section properties
(Overrides CroSecprops.) |
| user_defined |
indicates whether a cross section is user-defined or generated (e.g. a default material)
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| Wely_z_neg | static resistance moment about y-axis for upper cross section point. In case of e.g. T-sections different from Wely_lower |
| Wely_z_pos | static resistance moment about y-axis for lower cross section point. |
| Welz_y_neg | static resistance moment about z-axis for extreme left cross section point |
| Welz_y_pos | static resistance moment about z-axis for extreme right cross section point |
| Wply | plastic resistance moment about y-axis |
| Wplz | plastic resistance moment about z-axis |
| Wt | torsional resistance moment |
| zg | distance of applied load to shear center of the cross section. By default it is equal to zs |
| zm |
distance of center of shear from upper section boundary
(Inherited from CroSec.) |
| zs |
distance of center of gravity from upper section boundary
(Overrides CroSeczs.) |
