Table: Area Auto Mesh Assignments
Field: Area
Units: Text
Field: MeshType
Units: Text
This is either Number of Elements, Maximum Size, Points On Edges, Cookie Cut Lines,
Cookie Cut Points or General indicating the type of automatic meshing specified.
Field: MeshGroup
Units: Text
This group used to specify points and lines used in determining how the area object is to
be meshed. This item applies when the MeshType is Points On Edges, Cookie Cut Lines,
Cookie Cut Points and General.
Field: Number1
Units: Unitless
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Number of Elements.
If the MeshType item is Number of Elements then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed into Number1 by Number2 elements by the program for analysis.
Number1 is the number of elements along the edge of the area object from Point 1 to Point
2 of the area object.
Number2 is the number of elements along an adjacent edge of the area object.
Page 32 of 3928
Field: Number2
Units: Unitless
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Number of Elements.
If the MeshType item is Number of Elements then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed into Number1 by Number2 elements by the program for analysis.
Number1 is the number of elements along the edge of the area object from Point 1 to Point
2 of the area object.
Number2 is the number of elements along an adjacent edge of the area object.
Field: Max1
Format: Length (Section Dimensions section of form)
Units: Length
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Maximum Size.
If the MeshType item is Maximum Size then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed into elements no larger than the size specified by Max1 and Max2.
Max1 is the maximum size of elements along the edge of the area object from Point 1 to
Point 2 of the area object.
Max2 is the maximum size of elements along an adjacent edge of the area object.
Field: Max2
Units: Length
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Maximum Size.
If the MeshType item is Maximum Size then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed into elements no larger than the size specified by Max1 and Max2.
Max1 is the maximum size of elements along the edge of the area object from Point 1 to
Point 2 of the area object.
Max2 is the maximum size of elements along an adjacent edge of the area object.
Page 33 of 3928
Field: PtsFromLine
Units: Yes/No
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Points On Edges.
If the MeshType item is Points On Edges then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed into elements based on points on the edges of the area object.
If PtsFromLine is specified as Yes then points on the edge are determined from the
intersection of line objects included in the meshing group and the edges of the area object.
The line objects in the meshing group are only considered if they lie in the plane of the
area object.
If PtsFromPt is specified as Yes then points on the edge are determined from point objects
included in the meshing group that lie on the edges of the area object. The point objects in
the meshing group are only considered if they lie in the plane of the area object.
Field: PtsFromPt
Units: Yes/No
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Points On Edges.
If the MeshType item is Points On Edges then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed into elements based on points on the edges of the area object.
If PtsFromLine is specified as Yes then points on the edge are determined from the
intersection of line objects included in the meshing group and the edges of the area object.
The line objects in the meshing group are only considered if they lie in the plane of the
area object.
If PtsFromPt is specified as Yes then points on the edge are determined from point objects
included in the meshing group that lie on the edges of the area object. The point objects in
the meshing group are only considered if they lie in the plane of the area object.
Field: RotAngle
Format: Angles (Structure Dimensions section of form)
Units: Degrees
This item only applies when the MeshType item is Cookie Cut Points.
If the MeshType item is Cookie Cut Points then the area object is to be (internally)
automatically meshed based on lines that are created by them through point objects that
are specified in the meshing group. The lines are oriented at an angle in degrees, specified
by the RotAngle item, from the local 1 and 2 axes of the area object. Positive rotations
appear counterclockwise when the area object local 3 axis is pointing toward you.

optional additional group. The user may specify whether or not to automatically calculate
Page 206 of 3928

bent-column cracked properties as part of this analysis, and whether or not to include P-

case must be selected. Cracked section properties will not be automatically calculated in
this case.

C or D.

Page 500 of 3928

Field: MultiLevel
Units: Yes/No
This item is either Yes or No.
If this item is Yes, then when the diaphragm constraint is assigned to selected joints using
the Assign menu > Joint > Constraints command the program automatically creates new
diaphragm constraint assignments at each different Z level among the selected joints. The
Z level is determined in the constraint coordinate system.
The new diaphragms constraint names have a prefix of the original diaphragm name and a
suffix of the elevation. The elevation portion of the name is in the database units for the
model, that is the units in which the model was created.
Each selected point is assigned the diaphragm constraint for its Z elevation. The net result
is a series of diaphragm assignments at different Z elevations.
Note that this special multilevel assignment only works when the constraint assignment is
made using the Assign menu > Joint > Constraints command. Any multilevel assignment
made through the database is ignored and an error message is generated in the import log.

Field: Darkness
Units: Unitless
A value ranging from 0 to 1 that controls the variation of color (intensity of shading) when
extruded shapes are displayed. A darkness value of 0 means there is no variation of color
(and thus the extruded shape will not really be distinguishable). A darkness value of 1
gives the maximum variation of color. The default value is 0.3; this value works well in
most instances.

This is either"Hot Rolled", "Hot Finished", "Cold Formed", "Stress Relieved", "Lightly
Welded", or "Heavily Welded" indicating the residual stress level in the structural section.
This affects plasticity limit and yield limit of plate element slenderness values. Eventually
this can affect moment capacity and axial compression capacity through modification on
Ze and Aeff. "Hot Rolled" and "Hot Finished" are used synonymously in this program.
"Cold Formed" is meant as cold-formed and not stress-relieved. "Stress Relieved" is
meant as cold-formed and stress-relieved. Welded H and I sections are assumed to be
fabricated from flame-cut plates. See sections 5.2.2, 6.2.4, 6.3.3, and Tables 5.2, 6.2.4,
6.3.3(1), and 6.3.3(2) of "AS 4100:1998/NZS 3404:1997" code for details.

Parameter for Compression Resistance. Unitless factor used in the calculation of

compression resistance. Its value should be picked up for the compression curve. Typical
values are 2.24 (SSRC Curve 1), 1.34 (SSRC Curve 2), and 1.00 (SSRC Curve 3). Lower
values are conservative. Its effect is minimal if lambda is close to zero or very large
(lambda > 2.0). See CSA-S16-01/S16S1-05 section 13.3.1 and related commentary.

This is either"Hot Rolled", "Hot Finished", "Cold Formed", "Stress Relieved", "Lightly
Welded", or "Heavily Welded" indicating the residual stress level in the structural section.
This affects plasticity limit and yield limit of plate element slenderness values. Eventually
this can affect moment capacity and axial compression capacity through modification on
Ze and Aeff. "Hot Rolled" and "Hot Finished" are used synonymously in this program.
"Cold Formed" is meant as cold-formed and not stress-relieved. "Stress Relieved" is
meant as cold-formed and stress-relieved. Welded H and I sections are assumed to be
fabricated from flame-cut plates. See sections 5.2.2, 6.2.4, 6.3.3, and Tables 5.2, 6.2.4,
6.3.3(1), and 6.3.3(2) of "AS 4100:1998/NZS 3404:1997" code for details.
