    Class Grating

    Grating is material of different sizes of steel bar. It is considered to be a single material because it may be purchased from manufactures as a single piece of material.

    Grating()

    Grating is material of different sizes of steel bar. It is considered to be a single material because it may be purchased from manufactures as a single piece of material.

    Declaration
    public Grating()

    Properties

    BearingBarCount

    The number of bars parallel with the grating's X axis. Changing the number of bearing bars will impact the grating width.

    Declaration
    public int BearingBarCount { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    int

    BearingBarDepth

    Bearing bar depth measured perpendicular to the workline of the grating. The bottom surface of the grating will be in the same plane as the workline. All bearing bars and end bands will have this depth.

    Declaration
    public double BearingBarDepth { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    BearingBarSpacing

    The distance between any one bearing bar and the next bearing bar plus the thickness of the one bearing bar. Changing the spacing will impact the grating width.

    Declaration
    public double BearingBarSpacing { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    BearingBarThickness

    Bearing bar thickness for all bearing bars. Changing the thickness will impact the grating width.

    Declaration
    public double BearingBarThickness { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    CrossBarCount

    The number of bars parallel to the grating's Y axis, not including the end bands, based on the following calculation: OrderLength / CrossBarSpacing

    Declaration
    public int CrossBarCount { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    int

    CrossBarDepth

    Cross bar depth measured perpendicular to the workline of the grating between the top and bottom edges of any one cross bar. In other words, this is the Z axis dimension of the cross bar. All cross bars have this depth.

    Declaration
    public double CrossBarDepth { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    CrossBarSpacing

    The distance between the center of any one cross bar to the center of the next cross bar plus the thickness of the one cross bar. The generated material length does not automatically change when spacing changes.

    Declaration
    public double CrossBarSpacing { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    CrossBarThickness

    Cross bar thickness for all cross bars.

    Declaration
    public double CrossBarThickness { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    Ends

    The left and right end information of the grating material.

    Declaration
    public GratingEndList Ends { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    GratingEndList

    Grade

    Returns a steel grade, or null if not applicable

    Declaration
    public SteelGrade Grade { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    SteelGrade
    Remarks

    To set a grade look for the Grade property on the derived class. You'll need to choose a grade from an appropriate grade list for that material type. Which can be found in a static property, on that class, called AvailableSteelGrades.

    Exceptions
    Type Condition
    InvalidValueException

    Attempting to set a grade not in this type of material's grade list will throw an InvalidValueException. This is determined by searching that grade list for a grade which is equal (operator ==).

    OrderLength

    The actual length along the longitudinal axis, i.e. X material axis. Changing this distance adjusts the number of cross bars while maintaining the thickness and spacing when the solids are regenerated.

    Declaration
    public double OrderLength { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    Width

    The width of of the material along the material Y axis based on the following calculation: (BearingBarCount - 1) * BearingBarSpacing + BearingBarThickness

    Declaration
    public double Width { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    double

    A floating point value in inches.

    Methods

    Dispose(bool)

    Grating is material of different sizes of steel bar. It is considered to be a single material because it may be purchased from manufactures as a single piece of material.

    Declaration
    protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)
    Parameters
    Type Name Description
    bool disposing
    Overrides
    Material.Dispose(bool)

    GetAvailableSteelGrades()

    Available steel grade list for grating materials in the active job

    Declaration
    public static SteelGradeList GetAvailableSteelGrades()
    Returns
    Type Description
    SteelGradeList
