Arguments

$SectionLabel
Unique Section Label for reference
$B
Width along horizontal/bending axis
$H
Depth along vertical/rotated axis
$CoverMaterialLabel
Previously-defined MaterialLabel. Used as cover material, defined outside the perimeter of the longitudinal reinforcement.
$CoreMaterialLabel
Previously-defined MaterialLabel. Used as core material, defined inside the perimeter of the longitudinal reinforcement.
$ReinfMaterialLabel
Previously-defined MaterialLabel. Used as longitudinal-reinforcement material.
$SectionDescription
Text. Optional, default = blank {}
$NBarTop
Number of Reinf. Bars in Top Layer. Optional, default = 0
$NBarBot
Number of Reinf. Bars in Bottom Layer. Optional, default = 0
$NBarInt
Number of Reinf. Bars in Each Intermediate Layer. Optional, default = 0
$BarSizeTop
Size Label of Reinf. Bars in TopLayer. Optional, default = #9
$BarSizeBot
Size Label of Reinf. Bars in Bottom Layer. Optional, default = #9
$BarSizeInt
Size Label of Reinf. Bars in Intermediate Layer. Optional, default = #9
$CoverTop
Cover to centroid of Reinf. Bars in Top Layer. Optional, default = 2. inch
$CoverBot
Cover to centroid of Reinf. Bars in Bottom Layer. Optional, default = 2. inch
$CoverInt
Cover to centroid of Reinf. Bars in Intermediate Layer. Optional, default = 2. inch
$nfCoreH
Number of core fibers along depth. Optional, default = 16
$nfCoreB
Number of core fibers along width. Optional, default = 16
$nfCoverH
Number of cover fibers along depth. Optional, default = 4
$nfCoverB
Number of cover fibers along width. Optional, default = 4
$nu
Poisson's Ratio. Used to calulated G=($E/2/(1+$nu). Optional, default = 0.2
$J
Torsional Moment of Inertia. Optional, default = 1.e8
$WeightDensity
Linear Weight Density of section. Used to calculated element weight: ElementWeight=$WeightDensity*ElementLength. Optional, default = 0.
NOT IMPLEMENTED IN CURRENT VERSION


Notes

The addSection command must be placed at the end of each Section-data definition, as it takes all data defined since the last addSection command and define the Section.
