SECTION 2

Member Cross Sections

Member cross-section symbols are used in the Structure task.
All section tables delivered with the software use a specific set of cross-section symbols. Some
section tables use all the cross-section symbols in the set; some tables only use a subset of the
cross-section symbols. Each cross-section symbol has its own set of properties. When looking
at a section table workbook, you can determine the cross-section symbol that is being
referenced by that particular sheet by looking at the SymbolDefinition entry at the top of the
sheet.
The cross-section symbols are delivered with the reference data software in the [Reference
Data Folder]\SharedContent\CrossSections folder. You can create your own custom
cross-section symbols, sometimes referred to as arbitrary sections, using the 2D Symbols utility
that is delivered with the software.
The software uses the simple physical representation of the cross-section symbol to display the
member geometry in the model. You can change the display representation using the Selected
Aspects option of Format > View.
The delivered symbols contain a detailed physical representation. This representation is
available only for marine models, and is not used for plant and materials handling models.
The delivered symbols also contain a production physical representation. This representation is
available only for marine models in the Structural Manufacturing task, and is not used for plant
and materials handling models.
For more information, see Cross-Section Symbol Representations in the 2D Symbols User's
Guide.

Symmetries about the x- and y-axes are defined by design properties only. The Flange
Width Extension (top and bottom) property is not a design property; therefore, the symmetry
calculation is not affected by this property. This non-affect can cause discrepancies between the
symmetry of the cross-section graphic and the IsSymmetricAlongX and IsSymmetricAlongY
properties when non-zero width extensions are defined.

Assembly Connections for Members

Member assembly connections are smart occurrence objects placed between members and
other structural objects in the Model. Assembly connections are created by using Place
Member Assembly Connection or Free End Cut at a frame connection or Place Member
Generic Assembly Connection in the Structural Detailing task. The rules select the type of
assembly connection. Assembly connections do not have geometry, but trigger other rules for
end cuts, corner features, and physical connections.

SECTION 4

Chamfers
A chamfer object is a plate-edge bevel that is added to properly trim the plate. Chamfers are
created when plates are detailed in the Structural Detailing task. A chamfer is placed
automatically by the assembly connection, based on the thickness difference of two connected
plate parts. In general, the chamfer is determined only by the geometry, and the user does not
change the result.
Chamfers can be single-sided or double-sided, and apply to both edge-to-edge (butt)
connections, and edge-to-face (tee) connections.
Chamfer selection at the assembly connection level also provides information used by welds in
physical connections, including the welding type. For more information, see Physical
Connections (on page 279).

SECTION 5

Brackets
Bracket types are based on the number of supports and the attachment method (trimmed or
lapped). A bracket can also contain an edge reinforcement, a buckling stiffener, or a flange.
Bracket symbols are delivered in two locations:

[Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Marine Library\Brackets folder. Within the Brackets

folder, the folder hierarchy is further organized by the number of supports and by whether
the bracket is trimmed or lapped.

[Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Brackets folder. Within the Brackets folder, the

folder hierarchy is further organized by the number of supports.

Two Support Brackets

2S brackets have two supports.

Brackets can be trimmed or lapped to one or both supports, as shown in the following examples.

Three Support Brackets

3S brackets have three supports.

Brackets can be trimmed or lapped to supports in any combination, as shown in the following
examples.

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

123

Brackets

Four Support Brackets

4S brackets have four supports.

Brackets can be trimmed or lapped to support 1 and support 2, but are trimmed to support 3 and
support 4, as shown in the following examples.

Five Support Brackets

5S brackets have five supports. Brackets are trimmed to all supports.

Brackets
Placement
Brackets are placed several ways:

As major brackets aligned with reference planes in the Molded Forms task.

As major tripping brackets aligned with supports in the Molded Forms task.

As rib connections on profiles in the Molded Forms task:

As bracket parts aligned with reference planes in the Structural Detailing task. Placement of
detailing brackets may be automated in the assembly connection rules.

SECTION 6

Slots and Collars

Slots and collars are placed automatically when a penetrating profile is detailed, but you can
overwrite the selections. The slot and collar selection processes are separated, to allow
placement of different slot and collar combinations.

Slot Selection
The slot selection can be controlled by the method that is used to plan the assembly. If the plate
is dropped onto a profile, the slot can be opened to a particular angle. This can be set directly
from planning data.
The following describes the selection process at the Root Slot level:

If the assembly method is Drop, SlotC and SlotA are available. If profile cross section type
is BULTL2 or BUT, SlotC2 is also available.

If the assembly method is Slide, SlotC and SlotI are available. If profile cross section type is
BUTL2 or BUT, SlotC2 is also available. SlotI is available only when the profile is
perpendicular to the base plate.

The result of the root selection is a child sub-selection. Each of the sub-selection types are
described in the following sections.
The delivered reference data does not provide data to allow slot selection to be set from
Planning data. The selection is controlled by the user. The default is set to Drop, and you must
set this at the assembly connection level. You can customize the reference data to allow slot
selection from Planning data.

End Cuts for Profiles

An end cut is a combination of a web cut and a flange cut, and is placed when profiles are
detailed. The end cut type is defined and modified as part of the assembly connection.
The following types of end cuts are delivered:
Clip - Places a welded web cut and flange cut.
Welded - Places a welded web cut. The flange cut may be welded or free.
Snip - Places an end cut that is not welded, and is set back with an angled cut from the
bounding object of the profile.
Cutback - Places an end cut that is not welded, and is set back with a straight cut from the
bounding object of the profile.
Bracketed - When a profile is bounded to a plate or the flange of another profile, automatically
places a bracket for many welded end cuts.
Brackets can be placed manually for the cutback type.

SECTION 12

End Cuts for Members

A member end cut is a combination of a web cut and a flange cut. It is placed by using Place
Member Assembly Connection or Free End Cut
at a frame connection or Place Member
Generic Assembly Connection
in the Structural Detailing task.
Multiple end cut symbols are available through each command. When the end cut is created by
Place Member Assembly Connection or Free End Cut
, its type is defined by the
assembly connection properties. When created by Place Member Generic Assembly
Connection
, the type is selected by the end cut properties.

Web and Flange Penetrations

Web cuts and flange cuts can be penetrated or non-penetrated. If the bounding axis is more
orthogonal to the web than the flange, the web is penetrated and the flange is non-penetrated:

If the bounding axis is more orthogonal to the flange than the flange, the flange is penetrated
and the web is non-penetrated:

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

205

End Cuts for Members

Symbol Conventions
Web cut symbols are always drawn with the top of the web above, the bottom of the web below,
the bounded member to the right, and the bounding member to the left.

1 - Top of web
2 - Bottom of web
3 - Bounded member
4 - Bounding member

Flange cut symbols are always drawn with the left flange above and the right flange below, and
the bounded part to the right and the bounding part to the left.

Edges and Faces

Because the bounding member can have any combination of rotation and reflection relative to
the bounded member, referring to the web and flange of the bounding member can be
confusing. Face, top edge, and bottom edge are used instead for the bounding member.
A face is a surface that represents a broad area of the bounding member whose surface normal
is pointing mostly toward the bounding part. It can be a surface of the web or flange.
An edge is a narrower surface that represents the thickness of the bounding members web or
flange. It is only considered an edge if the surface normal is pointing mostly toward the bounding
part. It can be a surface of the web or flange, that is, the web thickness or flange thickness. Top
edge refers to the bounding edge closest to the top of the bounded member, not the top portion
of the bounding member. Bottom edge refers to the bounding edge closest to the bottom of the
bounded member, not the bottom portion of the bounding member.
The following examples show how the web and flanges of the bounding member translate to
face and edge as the member is rotated. As described previously, the bounded part is to the
right with the top above and the bottom below.

206

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

End Cuts for Members

1 - Top flange

4 - Top edge

2 - Web

5 - Face

3 - Bottom flange

6 - Bottom edge

Reflection is not shown.

Composite Cuts
Penetrated end cuts follow multiple surfaces of the bounding member and contain up to three
individual cuts: a center cut, a top cut, and a bottom cut. The individual cuts are combined to
form composite cuts, as shown below.

1 - Top cut: Inside hook flange relief

2 - Center cut
3 - Bottom cut: Square flange relief web

A center cut is always applied. If needed, a top cut is applied to provide additional shape to the
top, web-penetrated region or the left, flange-penetrated region of the member. A bottom cut can
also be applied to provide additional shape to the bottom, web-penetrated region or the right,
flange-penetrated region of the member.
Non-penetrated end cuts consist of a single cut with one bounding surface.

SECTION 13

Advanced Plate Systems

Advanced plate systems are specialized plate systems such as side plates, ring plates,
transition plates, continuity plates, and buckling plates.

Most advanced plate systems are used with standard and built-up members created with Place
Linear Member
in the Molded Forms or Structure tasks. Member flanges and webs are
trimmed (rebounded) and connected to the advanced plate system. As an example, when an
advanced plate system is inserted along the length of a standard (non-built-up) member,
typically on the flange, the penetration connection is created between the standard member and
the advanced plate system.

All connections and penetration seams are automatically created when the plate is detailed
using Execute Detailing

When an existing member is modified, connections and trimming are modified by selecting a
port and using the Modify Member Generic Assembly Connection ribbon in the Molded
Forms and Structural Detailing tasks.

Advanced Plate Systems

Side Plates
A side plate joins the flanges or webs of a set of incoming members sharing a nodal connection,
as shown in green in the example below.

It can also be created axially on a supported member at its nodal connection with a supporting
member, as shown in green in the example below.

The physical axes of the members are end-point connected and coplanar. The common end
point is the nodal point. At least two members with non-collinear axes are necessary. The
incoming flange and web plate parts are trimmed. For built-up members, the incoming flange
and web parts are trimmed by the edges of the side plate.

272

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

Advanced Plate Systems

Ring Plates
A ring plate joins the flanges or webs of a set of incoming members sharing a nodal connection.
It is penetrated by a perpendicular cylindrical member, as shown in green in the examples
below.

The physical axes of the incoming members are end-point connected and coplanar. The
common end point is the nodal point. The axis of the perpendicular member traverses the nodal
point. A ring plate can be defined by a single incoming member and the perpendicular member.
The incoming flange and web plate parts are trimmed. For built-up members, the incoming
flange and web parts are trimmed by the edges of the ring plate.

Continuity Plates
A continuity plate extends the web or flange of an incoming member that has a nodal
connection, until it reaches a plate (a transition plate, a continuity plate, or a regular plate
system). It is bounded by two side plates, ring plates, or insert plates, as shown in green in the
example below.

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

273

Advanced Plate Systems

The physical axis of the member is end-point connected with the physical axes of the members
defining the side plates. The common end point is the nodal point. The incoming flange and web
plate parts are trimmed. In the case of built-up members, the incoming flange and web parts are
trimmed by the edges of the side plates. A reference member is used to choose the continuity
plate, which is the nearer or further from it.

Transition Plates
A transition plate joins the webs or flanges of two opposite members sharing in a nodal
connection and is bounded by two side plates, ring plates, or insert plates, as shown in green in
the example below.

A transition plate can also join differing profile systems of differing dimensions, as shown in
green in the example below.

274

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

Advanced Plate Systems

The physical axes of the two members are end-point connected and collinear. The common end
point is the nodal point. The incoming flange and web plate parts are trimmed. For built-up
members, the incoming flange and web parts are trimmed by the edges of the side plates.

Buckling Plates
A buckling plate stiffens the web and flange of a member. It can be positioned by and bounded
to plates sharing a nodal connection with the member or it can be defined by dimensions.

If you specify only one continuity plate, then the buckling plate is positioned where the
continuity plate intersects the first transition plate. In the example below, the continuity plate
is yellow, and the buckling plate is green.

If you specify two continuity plates, then the buckling plate is positioned between the
intersection of the first continuity plate and the first transition plate, and the intersection of
the second continuity plate and the second transition plate. In the example below, the
continuity plates are yellow, and the buckling plate is green.

If you specify dimensions, then the buckling plate can be on one or both sides of the
member and have full or partial height, as shown in green in the example below.

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

275

Advanced Plate Systems

For a tubular or boxed member, you specify the distance from the start node, as shown in
green in the examples below.

Brackets
A bracket stiffens profile stiffeners and a supporting plate. The bracket can be knuckled when
the webs of the profiles are not coplanar, as shown at the red line in the example below.

276

Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide

Advanced Plate Systems

Insert Plates
An insert plate replaces the flanges of a set of:

Supported and supporting members

Intersecting members

The member flanges are trimmed to the insert plate, and connections are created between the
insert plate and the member.

SECTION 14

Physical Connections
Physical connection objects add weld information. They are created when plates and profiles
are detailed in the Structural Detailing task. A physical connection is placed automatically by the
assembly connection, based on the geometry of the two objects being welded and on a series of
questions that can be modified by the user. These questions can be accessed on the Selection
tab of the Physical Connection Properties dialog box in the Structural Detailing task of the
software.
