Label
|
Displays the current label for the node.
|
Coordinates
|
Displays the current coordinates for the node.

Support/Boundary Condition
|
- Type — Select the
type of support or boundary condition.
- Free – No
restrictions on any direction
- Pinned – X, Y,
and Z are fully restricted, and RX, RY, and RZ are not restricted at all.
- Partial – There
is some combination of restricted and free directions other than that which
qualifies for Free, Pinned, or Fixed.
- Fixed – All
directions are fully restricted.
|
X, Y, Z
|
Set the restrictions for the movement of the node
for translation X, Y, and Z (the node moving in those directions).
- None — No
restriction.
- Partial — Partial
restriction. Enter the amount of restriction in force/displacement. An example
of units is Kips/ft. A restriction value of zero is the same as None.
- Full — Full
restriction.
|
RX, RY, RZ
|
Set the restrictions for the movement of the node
for rotation RX, RY, and RZ (the node rotating in those directions).
- None — No
restriction.
- Partial — Partial
restriction. Enter the amount of restriction in moment/rotation. An example of
units is K ft/degrees. A restriction value of zero is seen by the software as
the same as None.
- Full — Full
restriction.
