Create Effective Beam

Create Effective Beam

            1. Effective Beam Name : Select the Effective Beam  

               which was defined in  the Define Effective Beam

               function.

               You can open the Define Effective Beam dialog box

               by clicking  the button.

             2. Material : Select the Material of Effective Beam. 

                You can open the Properties dialog box by clicking

                the button.

             3. Nodal Connectivity:  Select the two nodes to create

                 Effective Beam

             4. Intersect :  If there is a Node/Element at the location

                 where the beam to be installed passes, it is decided

                 whether to split.

                 -  Node : If checked, if there is a node on the line of the

             element to be created, the element is created by dividing

             it at the node position. It is applied regardless of the

             element type.

                 - Element : if checked, when the element to be created

             and the existing line element intersect each other, a node

             is automatically created at the intersection and the line

             element is split.

  Note.

 When setting the Column Strip in the Finite Element Method modeling, you do not need to install the Effective Beam, and you can also set it in the General Beam installation section in Create Element more conveniently.
