Default Type Standard Brackets

The system is delivered with a definition file for a default set up of a variety of brackets of different kinds . A survey of these brackets can be found in Brackets in Example File .

As further developed below, the bracket definition file can be extended interactively via a wizard in the inithull module.

In this way the file can be used as a starter (pattern) for a customer in defining his own standards. Many of the brackets are very similar to each other (almost duplicates!) and a customer is encouraged to remove those brackets which are of no interest in order to reduce menu sizes in picking of brackets.

For a couple of brackets (types KL and K) following paragraphs contain the detailed specification upon which the bracket definition has been made. The remaining brackets have been created according to similar principles.

Type Standard Bracket KL contains a specification of the most simple of all brackets (type KL) with the option of having at most one stiffener parallel to the free edge.

Type Standard Bracket K contains a specification of a big bracket (type K) which may have a different number of stiffeners parallel to the free edge depending on the size (depth) of the bracket.
