Beam Shear Connection C1 - Stiffener tab

Used to set the stiffener type and dimensions.

Setting	Description
Stiffener Dimensions	Stiffener Type – Sets one of the stiffener types selected from the three available types: `Chamfered`, `Filleted` and `Rounded`. Thickness – Sets plates thickness. It is shared by all created plates except Cleat plates. A positive value determines the thickness. A negative value is to be read as its absolute value. A zero value is not permitted. The default is 10 or 0.4 depending on the units setting. Flange Distance – Sets the offset of the stiffener from flanges of the shape. A positive value determines the offset. A negative value is not allowed. The default is 0. Web Distance – Sets the offset of the stiffener from web of the shape. A positive value determines the offset. A negative value is not allowed. The default is 0. End Distance – Sets the offset of the stiffener from out edge of the shape. A positive value determines the offset. A negative value is not allowed. The default is 0. Stiffener Radius – Sets the round radius of corners of the stiffener. A positive value determines the radius. A negative value is to be read as its absolute value. The default is 5 or 0.2 depending on the units setting. Size Precision – Sets the precision of the rounding of the dimension of the stiffener. A positive value determines the precision. A negative value is to be read as its absolute value. The default is 10 or 0.4 depending on the units setting.
