- Gap – Sets the
distance from the outside edge of the Support shape to the end of the
Connecting shape. Enter a positive value to determine the gap. The default is 8
or 0.35 depending on the units setting.
- Support
Top Offset – Sets the offset between plate and shape flange. This
is the distance from inner side of the upper flange of the support shape to
outer edge of the stiffener plate. Enter a positive value to determine the
offset. A negative value is to be read as its absolute value. The default is 1
or 0.05 depending on the units setting.
- Connect
Top Offset – Sets the offset distance from the outer edge of the
connecting shape to the stiffener plate edge. Enter a positive value to
determine the offset (refer to the drawing above). A negative value is to be
read as its absolute value. The default is 3 or 0.15 depending on the units
setting.
- Thickness –
Sets the thickness for the plates. Enter a positive value to determine the
thickness. A negative value is to be read as its absolute value. The default is
10 or 0.5 depending on the units setting.
- Step
Offset – Sets the
- Edge
Distance – Sets the distance from the center of the hole to the end
of the connecting shape. Enter a positive value to determine the distance . A
negative value is to be read as its absolute value. The default is 42 or 1.65
depending on the units setting.
- End
Distance – Sets the distance from the center of the hole to the end
of the stiffener plate. Enter a positive value to determine the distance . A
negative value is to be read as its absolute value. The default is 29 or 1.15
depending on the units setting.
- Chamfer
X – Sets the chamfer length on the stiffener plate along the
horizontal direction. Enter a positive value to determine the length. The
default is 10 or 0.5 depending on the units setting.
Tip: To create Chamfer, both X and Y values are
required.
- Chamfer
Y – Sets the chamfer length on the stiffener plate along the
vertical direction. Enter a positive value to determine the length . The
default is 10 or 0.5 depending on the units setting.
- Support
to Top Flange – When checked, connects the plate to the top flange
of the support shape. Disables the Support Top Offset field.
- Support
to Down Flange – When checked, connects the plate to the bottom
flange of the support shape.
- From
First Hole – When checked, creates the step at the center of the
connecting plate. Disables the Align Panel to Connect option.
- Align
Panel to Connect – When checked, connects the plate to the top
portion of the connecting (Multibeam) shape. Disables the Connect Top Offset,
