COG_X, COG_Y, COG_Z

This is a template attribute. Template attributes can be used in filtering, or to retrieve data from the model to use in drawings and reports. For example, when you create a report, Tekla Structures replaces the attributes added in the report template with the corresponding object property values.

Shows the coordinates of the center of gravity of assemblies, parts, or welds:

  • For parts, assemblies, and cast units the attributes COG_X, COG_Y, and COG_Z return values in global coordinate system.

  • For welds the attributes COG_X, COG_Y, and COG_Z return values in local coordinate system (current work plane grid).

These attributes cannot be used in headers or footers.
