Section Category Section
Devices can have different properties related to their section.
The main ones are:
- Height - Height of the device.
Check for the specific type where this section applies
- Length - Length of the device, it is measured on the X axis, when the rotation is equal to zero
- Width - Width of the device, it is measured on the Y axis, when the rotation is equal to zero
Devices are built by the Constructor and the user is free to create the necessary properties for modeling.
However, some properties are mandatory and must be used in the model:
The properties where the corresponding cell of the Name column are read-only are the Required Properties.
See the topic Constructor / Creating Properties to learn more.
Default device properties:
- Linear or longitudinal devices:
- HydraulicSection, GeometryPlanar - applies to linear/longitudinal gravity devices, section which will be used to calculate hydraulic parameters
The hydraulic section is defined in the Constructor and will be used in the culvert dimensioning
- External Area (OutArea, Double) - External area of the cross section of the device for calculating the excavation
- Outside Height (OutHeight, Double) - outside height of the cross section, used to calculate the manual backfill area (RMAN )
- Outside Width (OutWidth, Double) - outside width of the cross section, used to calculate the trench width (TrenchWidth)
- CoverHeight, Double height between the insertion point and the top of the device, used to calculate the device cover in each stake
- PipeLines, Integer - number of pipes in line, used to divide the flow flowing in each section
