General
Parent System
Specifies the parent system for the object. Recently used systems that are appropriate to assign as the parent system for this object display in the list along with the Select from Workspace and Select from Model options. The most recently used system displays at the top.
The parent system of the object must have an Approval Status of Working before you can change the Parent System value. If the Approval Status of the parent system is not set to Working, this value is read-only.
Select Interactively
Turns on or off the interactive selection. When this option is on, you can select the parent object in a graphic view or any of the explorers.
Select from Workspace
Displays the Select Parent System Dialog with the Workspace tab open. The workspace is the subset of the active model database you specified when you started your design session. Navigate the hierarchy to select the parent system, and then select OK.
Select from Model
Displays the Select Parent System Dialog with the Model tab open. The model is all the objects in the active model database, including those that are not part of your workspace. Navigate the hierarchy to select the parent system, and then select OK.
Name
Specifies the naming rule that you want to use to name this slab.
Default Name Rule
Names the slab using the format "Slab-<location>-<index>" where <location> is the global workshare location ID and <index> is a unique index number that starts at 0001. For example, Slab-1-0043.
User Defined
Select to specify the slab name yourself in the Name box.
Type
Select the type of wall to place. The properties change depending on the wall type that you select.
Composition
Select a wall composition from the list. Available compositions depend on the type of wall being placed.
Cardinal Point
Specify the relative position of the wall to the path. Fifteen positions are available. The location of positions 10 (center-of-gravity) and 15 (shear center) depend on the wall's section shape. The local z- axis of the wall and the center-of-gravity point of the section define positions 11 and 14. The local y-axis of the wall and the center-of-gravity point of the section define positions 12 and 13.
Reflect
Reflects or mirrors the cross-section about the wall's path. This parameter affects both symmetric and asymmetric sections.
Thickness
Type the thickness of the wall. The default thickness is based on the selected wall type and composition. If the wall has more than one layer, then the Thickness box is read-only.
Height
Enter the maximum height for the wall.
Path and Boundaries
Support Plane
Select the support plane for the bottom of the wall.
Sketching
Opens the Sketching Controls that you can use to sketch the wall path.
Define Boundaries
Select additional graphic objects to be vertical boundaries for the wall. You can select members, other walls, grid planes, and surfaces. An example of when to use this option would be when placing a wall under a pitched roof.
