Question:
How can I enter/find the following cross-section "I‑PAR 700/135/6.6/10.2/15" in the cross-section library?
Answer:
This cross-section is a parameterized I-section. It can be entered in the cross-section library. In addition to the parametric thin-walled cross-sections (see Image 01), which usually require information about the weld, the parametrized cross-sections are oriented to the rolled cross-sections.
For some of the rolled cross-sections, parametrization is possible (see Image 02). This allows you to define the parameters for the fillet radius, the flange thickness, and the web thickness, for example. To avoid opening the graphical user interface of the cross-section parameters in case of changes, it is also possible to adjust the cross-section dimensions directly in the text box of the cross-section. In case of modification, the cross-section is updated immediately in the background.
