This is a semi-tight bevel type where the lower part of the joint is parallel to the connection surface and the upper part is vertical.
This is a variant of bevel type 17 where the NOSE that is calculated parallel to the connection surface.

Relevant parameters: b, NOSE, GAP
Varying parameter: b
|
| NOSE | <1 |
Means that NOSE is defined as factor to be multiplied by the actual plate thickness to get the height of the nose. |
|
NOSE > 0 |
Means that NOSE is the height of the parallel (upper) part of the joint. |
|
NOSE < 0 |
Means the height of the lower, tightly connected nose. |
|
(for example, NOSE=0.5 means that the "knee" of the bevel is in the middle of the plate). |
|
|
CON>0: |
The positive side of the bevel is upwards (as in the figure above). |
|
CON<0: |
The positive side must be turned downwards. |
This means that b = CON
