Beam geometry

abrakadabra

Hello,

 

I would like to get a beam element geometry information like width, height, length and reference line position. I am fine with the length as I can calculate from reference line coordinates, but I did not find information about width and height in API_​BeamType nor in its memo.

I am looking for the 400 and 300 values in case below in the API.

Hello there,

 

It's in the assemblySegmentData member, in nominalWidth and nominalHeight.

Thanks for the answer Akos,

 

The reference axis is also somewhere hidden in the memo?
