View and modify the parameters that define the type properties of fabric reinforcement sheets.
To change type properties, select an element and click Modify tabProperties panel (Type Properties). Changes to type properties apply to all instances in the project.
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). |
