Assign Beam Tool Options
The following options are available:
The filter narrows down the list of beam profiles. You can filter based on code (AISC, EUROCODE) or beam type (I, Channel, L, etc.). | |
Source | The code of practice defining the beam profile and material properties. |
Profile type | The general shape profile of the cross section (for example, "L" for angle sections). |
Family | The family subclass of the section that fits within the profile (for example, Equal angle, Unequal angle). |
Size classification | The declared size as defined by the code of practice. The actual dimensions may vary. |
Material | The material used. |
Grade | The grade of material used, as defined by the code of practice. |
Section depth | The measured depth of the section. |
Section width | The measure width of the section. |
Web thickness | The thickness of the beam web. |
Flange thickness | The thickness of the beam flanges. |
Kdet | The code specific dimension Kdet. |
K1 | The code specific dimension K1. |
Cross-section area | The cross-sectional area. |
Ixx | The second moment of area about the sections primary (xx) axis of bending. |
Iyy | The second moment of area about the sections secondary (yy) axis of bending. |
