Bending information may be drawn inside profile bounds or displayed as markings along the dimensioning line. Bending radius and bending angle are presented if those values are within the limits described below.
The following keywords are defined in the Profile Sketch Restriction file assigned to logical variable SBH_SKETCH_RESTRICT.
BENDING_RADIUS_LOW_LIMIT
Bending radius is displayed only if it is greater than this floating point value. Default is 0.0.
BENDING_RADIUS_LIMIT
This keyword defines the greatest radius that will be displayed. Default is 0.0.
PROFILE_THICKNESS_LIMIT
Profiles thicker than the limit defined by this keyword may not be bent, so in that case no bending information will be shown. Default value is 0.0.
Some default parameters are also introduced in Profile Restriction File assigned to the logical variable SBH_PROF_RESTRICT.A complete description of the restriction file can be found in Setup and customization of Hull.
BENDING_MARK_START
Label for start of bending. Default value is 'BS'
BENDING_MARK_END
Label for end of bending. Default value is 'BE'
PREFIX_RAD_TS
Radius prefix for 'This Side' bending. Default value is 'BD'
PREFIX_RAD_OS
Radius prefix for 'Other Side' bending. Default value is 'BM'
PREFIX_ANG_TS
Angle prefix for 'This Side' bending. Default value is 'D'
PREFIX_ANG_OS
Angle prefix for 'Other Side' bending. Default value is 'M'
KNUCKLE_MARK
Label for bending at ‘Knuckle’ point. Default value is ‘KN’

Marking for T-bar, mould side view. Bending angle is displayed.
