The "Inclination" element there are data describing the inclination between the web of the shell profile and the surface. The inclination can be defined in each end of the profile and in a number of points along the trace of the shell stiffener:

End1/End2 attributes:
|
Axis |
Possible values are: Perp - The shell stiffener should be perpendicular to the surface in this end X - The angle should be measure against the X-axis (in the XY-plane) Y - The angle should be measure against the Y-axis (in the YZ-plane) Z - The angle should be measure against the Z-axis (in the XZ-plane) Required attribute. |
|
Angle |
The inclination angle. Only relevant if Axis is "X", "Y" or "Z". |
The stiffener inclination may also be controlled in a number of points along the trace of the stiffener, each point given in a "Position" element:

The location of the "inclination point" can be define by a principal plane or where another object intersects the shell stiffener.
PrincipalPlane has one attribute:
|
X, Y or Z |
You select one of the attributes X, Y or Z. The value is a single coordinate value. It can be a single coordinate value given in the traditional AVEVA Marine format, for instance: X="FR20" Y="LP10+200" Z="14500" |
Object attributes:
|
ObjType |
The type of object, possible values are "HullCurve", "Plane", "PlanePanel", "Seam" and "ShellProfile". Required attribute. |
|
ObjId |
The name of the object. Required attribute. |
|
Refl |
Indicated whether the object should be used in its normal or reflected position. Possible values are "true" and "false". Optional attribute, default value is "false". |
The "Angle" element has two attributes: "Axis" and "Angle". They are the same as in the "Inclination/End1" element.
