The following table describes each parameter contained in the Fabric Sheet Type Properties dialog. Select the legacy fabric sheet and then select Modify | Structural Fabric Reinforcement tab
Properties panel
Type Properties to access this table.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Construction | |
| Major Direction Wire Type | Indicates the type of fabric wire in the major direction. |
| Minor Direction Wire Type | Indicates the type of fabric wire in the minor direction. |
| Default Major Lap/Splice Length | Specifies the length of the major lap-splice. |
| Default Minor Lap/Splice Length | Specifies the length of the minor lap-splice. |
| Rounding Overrides | Specifies the rounding parameters for the selected fabric sheet type. This overrides the rounding parameters defined in the Fabric Sheet Instance Properties dialog. Note: This parameter is available only if reinforcement rounding was specified in the project.
|
| Materials and Finishes | |
| Material | Specifies the material to use with the fabric sheet. |
| Physical Material Asset | Displays the name of the Physical Material Asset (read-only). |
| Structural | |
| Sheet Mass | Specifies the value of Sheet Mass. |
| Sheet Mass per Unit Area | Displays the value of Sheet Mass per Unit Area. |
| Major Reinforcement Area | Displays the value of Major Reinforcement Area. |
| Minor Reinforcement Area | Displays the value of Minor Reinforcement Area. |
| Layers | |
| Overall Length | Specifies the length of the fabric sheet (including overhangs) in the major direction. |
| Length | Displays the distance between first and last bar (Number of Wires x Spacing) (read-only). |
| Major Start Overhang | Specifies the distance from the edge of the sheet to the first wire (measured in the major direction). |
| Major End Overhang | Specifies the distance from the last wire to the edge of the sheet (measured in the major direction). |
| Major Layout Pattern | Indicates the pattern for laying out the major direction wires.
The following patterns are available: |
| Major Number of Wires | Specifies the number of wires used in the major direction (includes the first and last wires). |
| Major Spacing | Specifies the spacing between the wires (not including the overhangs). |
| Overall Width | Specifies the width of the fabric sheet (including overhangs) in the major direction. |
| Width | Displays the distance between first and last bar (Number of Wires x) (read-only). |
| Minor Start Overhang | Specifies the distance from the edge of the sheet to the first wire (measured in the minor direction). |
| Minor End Overhang | Specifies the distance from the last wire to the edge of the sheet (measured in the minor direction). |
| Minor Layout Pattern | Indicates the pattern for laying out the minor direction wires. See the Major Layout Pattern description above. |
| Minor Number of Wires | Specifies the number of wires used in the minor direction (includes the first and last wires). |
| Minor Spacing | Specifies the spacing between the wires (not including the overhangs). |
