I am trying to export a couple of beam notches (with a rounding corners) to Idea Connection like the following:
I have tried to create both notches by using BeamData objects NotchesAsBeamData-iom.zip, but it failed.
FYI, in Idea.exe, both members look like:
I needed to define Material property for the CssComponent to prevent failure. It is weird because the material is not needed because the section will be used by a member that behaves as a cutting solid.
I also tried to create both notches by using PlateData objects NotchesAsPlateData-iom.zip and it also failed.
I guess that the issue could be related to the fact that I am not setting Material to PlateData & IsNegativeObject = true, which shouldn't be a problem for a cutting volume.
In case I set up Material and don't consider as cutting object (IsNegativeObject = false), Idea Connection fails and shows some message I cannot read:
Could you please let me know how to define notches in IOM?
Best regards
OS: Windows 10 Pro-1909
IOM Version 20.0,104.57553
IdeaStatiCa Version 20.0,104.57553
Edited:
I have exported a connection from Tekla Structures to Idea Connection and I see that notch is defined as a member:
So, if member is used, which properties should be used for it?
