Cross-section

The member cross-section may be specified in this part of the tree menu. The cross-sectional parameters can be specified for the whole member or can vary along the member length. In this case, the member has to be divided into particular sectors, every sector may contain different cross-section. The table contains one sector along the whole member length as a default for every new member. This sector can be modified using button "Edit" or by double-click on the table row. The properties of cross-section are organized in the window "Cross-section edit". More sectors can be added (button "Add") for input of different fire resistance parameters along the member length. The new sectors are automatically added behind the first sector according to the start coordinate called "Sector beginning". This point is automatically considered as the end of previous sector.

The particular sectors are displayed also in the active workspace. Double-click on certain sector launches the appropriate window for sector edit.

If the member is loaded from "Fin 2D" or "Fin 3D", the cross-section geometry will be automatically copied from this program.
