Document.NewAreaBoundaryConditions(Element, TranslationRotationValue, Double, TranslationRotationValue, Double, TranslationRotationValue, Double) Method

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.Creation
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 26.4.0.0 (26.4.0.0)

Syntax

C#

public BoundaryConditions NewAreaBoundaryConditions(
	Element hostElement,
	TranslationRotationValue X_Translation,
	double X_TranslationSpringModulus,
	TranslationRotationValue Y_Translation,
	double Y_TranslationSpringModulus,
	TranslationRotationValue Z_Translation,
	double Z_TranslationSpringModulus
)

Parameters

hostElement  Element

A Wall, Slab or Slab Foundation to host the boundary conditions.

X_Translation  TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the X axis translation option.

X_TranslationSpringModulus  Double

Translation Spring Modulus for X axis. Ignored if X_Translation is not "Spring".

Y_Translation  TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the Y axis translation option.

Y_TranslationSpringModulus  Double

Translation Spring Modulus for Y axis. Ignored if Y_Translation is not "Spring".

Z_Translation  TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the Z axis translation option.

Z_TranslationSpringModulus  Double

Translation Spring Modulus for Z axis. Ignored if Z_Translation is not "Spring".

Return Value

BoundaryConditions
If successful, NewAreaBoundaryConditions returns an object for the newly created BoundaryConditions with the BoundaryType = 2 - "Area". null is returned if the operation fails.

Exceptions

Remarks

This method will only function with the Autodesk Revit Structure application.

Example

C#

bool CreateAreaConditionWithElement(AnalyticalPanel wall, Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document docCreation)
{
   // Create Area Boundary Conditions using a given Wall and defaulting to fixed in all directions
   BoundaryConditions condition = docCreation.NewAreaBoundaryConditions(wall, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                              TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                              TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0);
   return (null != condition);
}

VB

Private Function CreateAreaConditionWithElement(wall As Wall, docCreation As Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document) As Boolean
    ' Create Area Boundary Conditions using a given Wall and defaulting to fixed in all directions
    Dim condition As BoundaryConditions = docCreation.NewAreaBoundaryConditions(wall, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, _
        0)
    Return (condition IsNot Nothing)
End Function
