Arguments
- $SectionLabel
- Unique Section Label for reference
- $E
- Elastic Modulus
- $Ag
- Area
- $Iz
- Moment of Inertia about horizontal/bending axis
- $SectionDescription
- Text. Optional, default = blank {}
- $Iy
- Moment of Inertia about vertical/rotated axis. Optional, default = $Iz
- $nu
- Poisson's Ratio. Used to calulated G=($E/2/(1+$nu). Optional, default = 0.2
- $J
- Torsional Moment of Inertia. Optional, default = 1.e8
- $WeightDensity
- Linear Weight Density of section. Used to calculated element weight: ElementWeight=$WeightDensity*ElementLength. Optional, default = 1.e8
- NOT IMPLEMENTED IN CURRENT VERSION
