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

Syntax

C#

public BoundaryConditions NewLineBoundaryConditions(
	Reference reference,
	TranslationRotationValue X_Translation,
	double X_TranslationSpringModulus,
	TranslationRotationValue Y_Translation,
	double Y_TranslationSpringModulus,
	TranslationRotationValue Z_Translation,
	double Z_TranslationSpringModulus,
	TranslationRotationValue X_Rotation,
	double X_RotationSpringModulus
)

Parameters

reference  Reference

The Geometry reference to a Beam's, Wall's, Wall Foundation's, Slab's or Slab Foundation's analytical line.

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".

X_Rotation  TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the option for rotation about the X axis.

X_RotationSpringModulus  Double

Rotation Spring Modulus for X axis. Ignored if X_Rotation is not "Spring"

Return Value

BoundaryConditions
If successful, NewLineBoundaryConditions returns an object for the newly created BoundaryConditions with the BoundaryType = 1 - "Line". null is returned if the operation fails.

Remarks

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

Example

C#

bool CreateLineConditionWithReference(AnalyticalMember column, Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document docCreation)
{
   if (column.StructuralRole != AnalyticalStructuralRole.StructuralRoleColumn)
   {
      throw new Exception("This sample only work for columns.");
   }

   // Get the line reference for the column analytical model
   Reference lineReference = null;

   AnalyticalModelSelector selector = new AnalyticalModelSelector(column.GetCurve());
   lineReference = column.GetReference(selector);
   if (null == lineReference)
   {
      throw new Exception("Unable to get reference line for selected column.");
   }

   // Create line Boundary Conditions for the column
   BoundaryConditions condition = docCreation.NewLineBoundaryConditions(lineReference, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                                       TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                                       TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                                       TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0);
   return (null != condition);
}
