Endcut, Bevel and Connection Data

In End1 and End2 you may set attributes for each stiffener end, like endcut, connection code, bevel codes, Please note that end1 and end2 refers to the direction the shell stiffeners are given in the input file, not the true end1/end2 of the shell stiffener model object in the data bank. In other words, data given in the End1 one element will set properties in end2 of the stiffener object if you given the ShellStiffener elements in reverse direction compared to the trace curve.
End1 and End2 has two child element "Endcut" and "Connection":
End1/End2 attributes
|
Excess |
Excess value, optional attribute. |
|
BevelWeb |
Bevel on the profile web, optional attribute. |
|
BevelFlange |
Bevel on the profile flange, optional attribute. |
Endcut attributes:
|
Type |
AVEVA Marine endcut code according to Hull Standards. Optional attribute. |
|
Parameters |
Additional endcut parameters. Optional attribute. |
|
AutoAngle |
Indicates how the endcut angle should be calculated, optional attribute. Possible values: Cutting - The endcut will be parallel to the plane of the splitting object. Frame - The endcut will be parallel to the X plane. Buttock - The endcut will be parallel to the Y plane. Waterline - The endcut will be parallel to the Z plane. |
In the Connection element the "split points" and end limits can be defined. This is described in the section Branches and Trace Curves.
Connection attributes:
|
Type |
Connection code according to Hull Standards. Optional attribute. |
|
Clearance |
The clearance between the stiffener end and the plane selected by the "Plane" attribute, see below. Optional attribute |
|
Plane |
Indicates how the clearance should be calculated. Possible values: Cutting - The clearance will be calculated perpendicular to the plane of the object used to split the shell profile. Frame - The clearance will be perpendicular to the X plane. Buttock - The clearance will be perpendicular to the Y plane. Waterline - The clearance will be perpendicular to the Z plane. Optional attribute, the default value is "Cutting". |
