Banded tendon polyline formatting options

  • Banded tendon polylines have a number of formatting properties to aid in the production of drawings:
    • Description - a user formatted string used to describe the banded tendon polyline properties.
    The formatted description strings for the banded tendon polyline use the following key values:
    • $F - force
    • $f - force units
    • $N - number of strands
    • $P - PT system name
    • $I - inflection point ratio
    • $S - spacing
    • $s - spacing units
    • $T - number of tendons
    • \n - new line
  • Draw Fillets - displays filleted connections between segments of banded tendon polylines using the Fillet Radius property set. The Fillet Radius property can be set to "Use Maximum" or a value smaller than the maximum can be typed into this box.
  • Profile Points - displays the profile control point information for the banded tendon polyline. The profile values are always referenced from the slab soffit to the CGS of the strands.
  • Symbol @ End 1,2 - displays the symbol at the end of the banded tendon polyline. Choices are:
    • None
    • Stressing End
    • Dead End
