Multiple stiffeners (1064) creates multiple stiffeners to I, C, and U profiles.

Objects created


Situation	Description
	Multiple stiffeners created to an I beam.

Select the main part (beam or column).
Pick a position for the stiffeners.

The stiffeners are created automatically when you pick the position.


	Description
1	Stiffener

Use the Picture tab to define the number and spacing of the stiffeners.


	Description
1	Number of stiffeners.
2	Stiffener spacing. Use a space to separate stiffener spacing values. Enter a value for each space between stiffeners. For example, if there are 3 stiffeners, enter 2 values.


Option	Description
	Default Middle AutoDefaults can change this option.
	Middle Creates stiffeners symmetrically.
	Right Creates stiffeners to the right of the up direction symbol.
	Left Creates stiffeners to the left of the up direction symbol.


Option	Description
	Default Middle AutoDefaults can change this option.
	Middle Sets the offset to the middle of the stiffener.
	Left Sets the offset to the left side of the stiffener.
	Right Sets the offset to the right side of the stiffener.

Use the Parts tab to define the part properties.


Part	Description
Left stiffener	Thickness and width of the left stiffener.
Right stiffener	Thickness and width of the right stiffener.


Option	Description	Default
Pos_No	Prefix and start number for the part position number. Some components have a second row of fields where you can enter the assembly position number.	The default part start number is defined in the Components settings in File menu > Settings > Options.
Material	Material grade.	The default material is defined in the Part material box in the Components settings in File menu > Settings > Options.
Name	Name that is shown in drawings and reports.
Finish	Describes how the part surface has been treated.

Use the Parameters tab to define the stiffener angles, creation direction, and offset.


	Description	Default
1	Angle of the right stiffener.	`0` degrees
2	Angle of the left stiffener.	`0` degrees

Set the stiffener polygon rotation of the right and the left stiffener.

The value you enter determines the number of points by which the start point of the polygon is moved in the direction shown by the arrows.

Select whether sloped stiffeners are fitted with the main part flanges.

Select whether gaps are applied in the stiffeners or in the main part.

Use the Stiffeners tab to define stiffener creation, dimensions, and chamfers on both sides of the part.


Option	Description
	Default Full stiffener AutoDefaults can change this option.
	Full stiffener
	Partial stiffener, upper end
	Partial stiffener, lower end
	Partial stiffener, bevel
	No stiffeners are created.


	Option	Default
1	Stiffener edge distance from the beam edge.	`0.0 mm`
2	Stiffener edge distance from the beam web.	Beam rounding radius 1
3	Stiffener edge distance from the beam upper flange.	`0 mm`
4	Stiffener edge distance from the beam lower flange.	`0 mm`
