Placa

Muchos componentes incluyen placas de inserción; por ejemplo, una Chapa frontal, Chapa de soporte, Chapa de conexión, etc. También puede insertar una placa como un componente separado, por ejemplo, actuando como una placa de capitel de un pilar, un rigidizador de una sección abierta o una cartela en la que conecta una barra utilizando el componente Placa de conexión. In the image below, you can see a cap plate and a gusset plate.

Elemento

In the first category of the "Component Settings", the dimensions of the plate and its material are to be defined. You can select from the existing materials or define a new one.

Posición

The next category controls the positioning of the plate in the joint.

Inicio

Select the "Origin" component that the displacements and rotations of the plate are to be related to.

The default setting is Joint, meaning the origin of the whole joint. You can also select a Member, Member Plate, another Plate, an Auxiliary Plane or Auxiliary Solid as the reference component. Based on the coordinate system of that component, you can move and rotate the plate to adjust its arrangement.

Origin alignment

This option is available when a member has been set as the origin. You can select the reference point of the cross-section where the plate is to be attached.

There are two lists with three options each.

Centro The center of the plate refers to the centroid of the cross-section.
Superior The center of the plate refers to the upper edge (bounding box) of the cross-section located in the negative z-direction.
abajo The center of the plate refers to the lower edge (bounding box) of the cross-section located in the positive z-direction.

Centro The center of the plate refers to the centroid of the cross-section.
Left The center of the plate refers to the left edge (bounding box) of the cross-section located in the negative y-direction.
Right The center of the plate refers to the right edge (bounding box) of the cross-section located in the positive y-direction.

Consejo

To check the directions, switch on the axes by means of the Lista de ejes list button option in the graphic area.

Object alignment

Here you can select the reference point ("grab point") of the plate used to connect it.

There are three lists with three options each.

Centro The plate is set at the center line which refers to its x-axis. The next columns control the specific point.
Superior The plate is aligned to its upper edge which is defined by the reference point located in the positive x-direction of the plate.
abajo The plate is aligned to its lower edge which is defined by the reference point located in the negative x-direction of the plate.

Centro The plate is set at the center line which refers to its y-axis. The other columns control the specific point.
Left The plate is aligned to its left edge which is defined by the reference point located in the negative y-direction of the plate.
Right The plate is aligned to its right edge which is defined by the reference point located in the positive y-direction of the plate.

Centro The plate is set at the center line which refers to its z-axis.
Delante The plate is aligned to its front side which is defined by the reference point located in the positive z-direction of the plate.
Detrás The plate is aligned to its rear side which is defined by the reference point located in the negative z-direction of the plate.

Información

A diferencia de los componentes complejos mencionados anteriormente, debe conectar la Placa agregando otro componente a la unión. La comprobación plausible le recordará esta necesidad.
