SectionCutDesign

Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.Results.SectionCutDesign

VB6 Procedure

Function SectionCutDesign(ByRef NumberResults As Long, ByRef SCut() As String, ByRef LoadCase() As String, ByRef StepType() As String, ByRef StepNum() As Double, ByRef P() As Double, ByRef V2() As Double, ByRef V3() As Double, ByRef T() As Double, ByRef M2() As Double, ByRef M3() As Double) As Long

Parameters

NumberResults

The total number of results returned by the program.

SCut

This is an array that includes the name of the section cut associated with each result.

LoadCase

This is an array that includes the name of the analysis case or load combination associated with each result.

StepType

This is an array that includes the step type, if any, for each result. See 
Analysis Results Step Type
.

StepNum

This is an array that includes the step number, if any, for each result.See 
Analysis Results Step Number
.

P, V2, V3

These are one dimensional arrays that include the axial force, shear force in the section cut local 2 direction and shear force in the section cut local 3 direction, respectively, for each result. [F]

T, M2, M3

These are one dimensional arrays that include the torsion, moment about the section cut local 2 axis and moment about the section cut local 3-axis, respectively, for each result. [FL]

Remarks

This function reports the section cut force for sections cuts that are specified to have a Design (P, V2, V3, T, M2, M3) result type.

The function returns zero if the section cut forces are successfully recovered, otherwise it returns a nonzero value.

See 
Analysis Results Remarks
 for more information.

VBA Example

Similar to FrameForce

 ret = SapModel.Results.SectionCutDesign(NumberResults, SCut, LoadCase, StepType, StepNum, P, V2, V3, T, M2, M3)

Release Notes
