A Beam to Beam support uses the following attributes to define the parts that are included in the support. The support has parts at both the ends and suffixes 1 and 2 are used to specify the parts on either ends.
Suffix 1 - specifies parts at the end of the Beam connected to the primary supporting structure
Suffix 2 - specifies parts at the end of the Beam connected to the secondary supporting structure
For example, EndPlatePart1 and EndPlatePart2.

Implementation Details |
---|---|---|
IJUAhsBeamPt:: |
Specifies the part number or the part class of the Hanger Beam steel part to use. |
Beam is a mandatory part. You must specify either a BeamPart or a BeamRule. |
IJUAhsBeamAng:: |
Specifies the angle of rotation for the Beam cross section. |
The following codelist values from the hsSteelOrientationAngle sheet in the HS_S3DAssy_Codelist workbook are supported: 0, 90, 180, 270. |
IJUAhsReflectTrun:: |
Specifies whether or not the Beam cross section must be reflected about the Beams y-axis. |
False True |
IJUAhsB2BBeam:: |
Specifies whether to place the two Beams in a back to back configuration. |
False - Only a single Beam is included. True - Two Beams are included in the support. |
IJUAhsEndPltPt(1&2):: |
Specifies the part number or the part class to use for the End Plate. EndPlatePart1 - end of Beam connected to the primary supporting structure. EndPlatePart2 - end of Beam connected to the secondary supporting structure. |
The End Plate is an optional part. Leave this attribute blank to exclude an End Plate. |
IJUAhsEndPltAng:: |
Specifies the angle of rotation for the End Plate about the axis of the Beam. |
|
IJUAhsBoltPt:: |
Specifies the part number or the part class of a Bolt part to use for bolting the End Plate. |
|
IJUAhsBoltQty::BoltQty |
Specifies the number of implied Bolt parts to include in the support. |
|
IJUAhsClipPt(1&2):: |
Specifies the part number or the part class of a Hanger Beam steel part to use for the support. |
|
IJUAhsClipQty:: ClipQuantity |
Specifies a codelist value that determines the number of Clips to include. |
|
IJUAhsClipBoltPt:: ClipBoltPart |
Specifies the part number or the part class of a Bolt part to use for bolting the Clip to the Beam. |
|
IJUAhsClipBoltQty:: ClipBoltQty |
Specifies the number of implied Bolt parts intended for use. |
|
IJUAhsVertPltPt(1&2):: VertPlatePart(1&2) |
Specifies the Plate part number or the part class to use for the vertical Plate. VertPlatePart1 - end of Beam connected to the primary supporting structure. VertPlatePart2 - end of Beam connected to the secondary supporting structure. To select a part number using the VertPlateRule, do not type any value for this property. |
The vertical Plate is required if the Beam connection is set to VerticalPlate.
