Syntax
public sealed class Beam : Member, IMemberRollingOperationConstructors
Beam()
A builtin steel beam member.
Declaration
public Beam()Properties
Ends
Get both ends in a single list, left then right.
Declaration
public BeamEndList Ends { get; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| BeamEndList |
IncludedAngleRoll
A builtin steel beam member.
Declaration
public double IncludedAngleRoll { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
IsBreakApart
Used to determine if connection material not welded to the member main material will be broken apart from the member
Declaration
public bool IsBreakApart { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| bool | true = process and create soilds will break apart member false = process and create solids will combine member material |
IsDoubleMaterial
Determines if the beam's material is doubled.
Declaration
public bool IsDoubleMaterial { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| bool |
IsLongLegVertical
When the Shape is an angle with uneven legs, this determines if the longer leg will be up/down (true) or ns/fs (false).
Declaration
public bool IsLongLegVertical { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| bool |
MidOrdinateRoll
A builtin steel beam member.
Declaration
public double MidOrdinateRoll { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
NumberOfStuds
The stud count for this beam
Declaration
public uint NumberOfStuds { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| uint |
Remarks
CompositeDesign must be true for this field to have any effect
RollType
A builtin steel beam member.
Declaration
public RollType RollType { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| RollType |
RollingRadius
A builtin steel beam member.
Declaration
public double RollingRadius { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
Rotation
Rotation about the workline in radians.
Declaration
public double Rotation { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
Seismic
Sets if the connection design creates seismic connections on the beam.
Declaration
public AutomaticYesNo Seismic { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| AutomaticYesNo | Automatic instructs the system to apply the choice made in Job Setup > Design Settings > Beam design loads > under beam moment. Yes specifies that the system create a seismic connection on both ends of the beam. No configures the system to create a non-seismic connection. |
SeismicMomentFrameType
Sets the moment frame type used if Seismic connection design set to Yes, or Automatic and enabled in setup for beams.
Declaration
public SeismicMomentFrameType SeismicMomentFrameType { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| SeismicMomentFrameType | Automatic instructs the system to apply the choice made in Job Setup > Design Settings > Beam design loads > under beam moment. Yes specifies that the system create a seismic connection on both ends of the beam. No configures the system to create a non-seismic connection. |
SlabWidth
The width of the slab supporting this beam
Declaration
public double SlabWidth { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
Remarks
CompositeDesign must be true for this field to have any effect
SpiralRollOffset
A builtin steel beam member.
Declaration
public double SpiralRollOffset { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
StoryHeightAboveNode
Distance from half depth of beam to half depth of beam above
Declaration
public double StoryHeightAboveNode { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
Remarks
Only valid if Seismic is Yes, or Automatic and the setup option is seismic. and if SeismicMomentFrameType is IMF or SMF (or if Automatic and setup is IMF/SMF).
StoryHeightBelowNode

| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| double |
Remarks
Only valid if Seismic is Yes, or Automatic and the setup option is seismic. and if SeismicMomentFrameType is IMF or SMF (or if Automatic and setup is IMF/SMF).
ToeDirection
When a shape has a non-symmetrical side (ex: angles, wtees; not: wide flange) this determines which direction that side faces. For example, in a wtee this decides the stem direction.
Declaration
public ToeDirection ToeDirection { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| ToeDirection |
UniformlyDistributedGravityLoad
Uniformly distributed gravity load on the beam
Declaration
public double UniformlyDistributedGravityLoad { get; set; }Property Value
