Eccentricity of sections

Hi

It seems that eccentricities of sections doesn’t function correctly.
…or am i doing something wrong?

Also i need a way to set the physical allignment of a section, with the API.
I’m working with a complex model, and would like to have the ability to visually inspect that sections align. Is this possible?

Best Regards

Is there any work-around on this topic?

Having the correct geometrical appearance and the correct eccentricity in the calculation, would be of high value to me.

Best Regards

Hi @Thomasaar !

I have created a quick C# custom code that should fix the issue.

I have also added the physical alignment input as per your request.

Let me know if it is working :slight_smile:

Amazing, thanks Marco!

I’ll implement this in the beginning of next week :+1:

Hello Marco

I just wanted to share, that your solution worked :smiley:
All my beams are now perfectly aligned and calculated correctly!

Thanks for your assistance!

Have a look at this thread.
Theoretically, it should be possible to do something similar as the picture below. However, it seems that we have a small issue with eccentricity and you might need to use the c# component that I provide above.
