| Thickness Equal to Flange
|
When checked, sets the thickness of the Moments
Plates equal to the flange thickness of the connecting member.
|
| Values
|
- Thickness –
Sets the thickness of the Moment Plate. Enabled when
Thickness Equal to Flange is unchecked.
- Shim
Clearance – Sets clearance for the shim. Shim does not appear in
the drawing.
- Web
Offset – Sets the offset from the web of the supporting shape.
- Flange
Offset – Sets the offset from the flange of the supporting shape.
|
| Inner Corners
|
-
Chamfered / Filleted /Rounded
– Sets one of the types of cut for the inner
corners of the Moment Plates. The inner corners are those nearest to the web of
the supporting member.
- Distance
/ Radius – Sets the distance relating to the cut. (Radius, in case
of Fillet/Round corners). If
0, default values are retrieved from the
OpenBridge Modeler database.
|
| Outer Corners
|
-
Chamfered / Filleted – Sets one of the types of cut for the outer
corners of the Moment Plate. The outer corners are those nearest to the flange
of the supporting member.
- Radius /
Rise - Run – Sets the distance relating to the cut. (Rise and Run,
in case of Fillet corners).
|
| Bolts
|
- Bolt
Type – Sets the bolt style from the drop-down list.
- Diameter – Sets
the hole diameter of the selected bolt from the drop-down list of bolt diameter
table.
- Workloose –
Sets the clearance between bolt and hole diameter.
- Additional
Length – Sets an additional length to the bolts extension outside
the nut.
- Bolt
Material – Sets the material to be used for the bolts selected from
the drop-down list.
- Weld – When
checked, the shapes are welded, instead of bolting.
Note: When set
to Weld, disables the Bolts and Spacing settings.
- Turn – When
checked, the bolt direction is inverted. Available when not welded.
|
| Longitudinal Spacing
|
- Number /
Slot Length – Sets the number of bolts to be placed on the
X axis, and in the second field, sets
the slot length.
- Inner
Distance (w1) – Sets the distance from the start of the shape to
the center of the first bolt.
- Inner
Distance (w2) – Sets the distance from the end of the shape to the
center of the last bolt.
- Distance
Between (w3) – Sets the distance between the center of the bolts.
Note: Enabled
for more than one Number of bolts.
|
| Transverse Spacing
|
- Number of
Bolts – Sets the number of bolts to be placed on the
Y axis.
- Edge
Distance (e1) – Sets the distance from the edge of the shape to the
center of the first bolt.
- Distance
Between (e2) – Sets the distance between the center of the bolts.
- Middle
Gauge – Sets the distance between the two center bolts. Even number
of bolts required.
- Inverse
Stagger (appears when staggered bolts are used) – When checked,
inverts the stagger.
