Separate Handling of Auto Bevel for Stiffener End Web and Flange

Description

Today bevels can be defined automatically at a stiffener end by defining a bevel set in the bevel default file and then specifying that the set is to be valid for stiffener end in the bevel set file. The bevel is then automatically defined for both flange and web. It is possible to prevent auto bevel for the stiffener end by giving the key word NABE in the stiffener statement.

It is now possible to prevent bevel for the web or flange separately. Two new keywords have been added NABF and NABW for the stiffener statement, deactivating auto bevel for stiffener end flange or web respectively.

Benefits

Makes it possible individually control the use of automatically defined bevelling for the web and flange at a stiffener end.

Compatibility Constraints

None, the keyword NABE remains and has the same meaning as before.
