Ref.Elem, (To, Step)
|
Element number(s) in the structural model to which the tendon geometry definition refers (geometry is defined relative to this element) |
Add. point for last element
|
For From/to/step-definition: an additional point is arranged at the end of the last element |
RefSet
|
If required: Selection of the reference set of the cross section point CS pnt |
CS pnt
|
Eccentricity of tendon can refer to certain additional point in the cross-section In this case the name of the point has to be chosen. |
X/L
|
Point on the reference element (element length related distance from the element begin) |
Ey
|
The vertical offset from the point on the reference element (X/L) to the tendon geometry constraint point (eccentricity: local or global) |
Ez
|
The horizontal offset from the point on the Reference Element (X/L) to the tendon geometry constraint point (eccentricity: local or global) |
Relative to Elem
|
If the button is selected, the eccentricity is related to the element axis |
Relative to Node
|
If the button is selected, the eccentricity is related to the node axis |
Relative to CS point
|
The eccentricity is related to the defined additional cross-section point |
Alpha 1
|
Defined angle in the X/Y plane for the definition of the tangent direction relative to the direction of the respective axis (element, node, CS point) |
Alpha 2
|
Defined angle in the X/Z plane for the definition of the tangent direction relative to the direction of the respective axis (element, node, CS point) |
FREE / VALUE
|
- Free: defined angle is not considered
- Value: defined angle is considered as constraint condition
|
Relative to Elem
|
If the button is selected, the angle definition is related to the element axis |
Relative to Node
|
If the button is selected, the angle definition is related to the node axis |
Relative to CS point
|
The angle definition is related to the defined cross-section point axis |
Extern
|
External Element check button - only for tendon points of the "Line" types for defining a straight external tendon section |
Number
|
If Extern is selected: Structural element number of the straight tendon section |
Radius
|
Only for tendon point type Intersection point: Rounding radius of tendon geometry |
