Stanchion double plate (87)

Stanchion double plate (87) uses two plates to create a connection between a stringer and a stanchion. A connection plate is bolted to the web of the stringer and a bearing plate is welded to both the connection plate and the stanchion.

The connection is created automatically when the secondary part is selected.

Part identification key


	Description
1	Connection plate
2	Bearing plate

Picture tab

Use the Picture tab to control the geometry of the connection.

Dimensions


	Description
1	Bearing plate vertical position. Distance from the main part upper edge to the bearing plate center line. By default, the distance is equal to the distance from the main part upper edge to the main part center line.
2	Vertical distance between the secondary part bottom edge and the bearing plate center line. By default, the distance is zero.


	Description
1	Vertical distance between bearing plate center point and connection plate center point. By default, the distance is zero.
2	Connection plate eccentricity Horizontal distance between the stanchion center line and the connection plate center point. By default, the eccentricity is zero.

Parts tab

Use the Parts tab to define the part properties.

Parts


Option	Description	Default
Connection plate	Thickness and width of the connection plate.	Thickness of a rectancular plate: `10 mm`. Width: `120 mm`
Bearing plate	Thickness and height of the bearing plate.	Thickness: `12 mm` Height is determined by the bolt distances defined on the Bolts tab.

Parameters tab

Use the Parameters tab to define the connection plate orientation and chamfers.

Plate type


Option	Description
	Default Rectangular AutoDefaults can change this option.
	Rectangular
	Diamond
	Triangular
	Circular
	Rectangular by bolts The plate size is determined by the values you enter on the Bolts tab.
	Circular by bolts The plate size is determined by the values you enter on the Bolts tab.

Plate orientation in skewed situations


Option	Description
	Default Perpendicular to the secondary part AutoDefaults can change this option.
	Perpendicular to the secondary part
	Oriented to the main part

Plate orientation


Option	Description
	Default Horizontal AutoDefaults can change this option.
	Perpendicular
	Horizontal

Chamfer type


Option	Description
	Default No chamfer AutoDefaults can change this option.
	No chamfer
	Line chamfer Define the horizontal and vertical chamfer dimensions.
	Round chamfer Define the chamfer radius.

Bolts tab

Use the Bolts tab to define the bolt properties.

Bolt group dimensions


	Descriptions
1	Dimension for horizontal bolt group position.
2	Select how to measure the dimensions for horizontal bolt group position. Left: From the left edge of the secondary part to the leftmost bolt. Middle: From the center line of the secondary part to the center line of the bolts. Right: From the right edge of the secondary part to the rightmost bolt.
3	Bolt edge distance. Edge distance is the distance from the center of a bolt to the edge of the part.
4	Number of bolts.
5	Bolt spacing. Use a space to separate bolt spacing values. Enter a value for each space between bolts. For example, if there are 3 bolts, enter 2 values.
6	Dimension for vertical bolt group position.
7	Select how to measure the dimensions for vertical bolt group position. Top: From the upper edge of the secondary part to the uppermost bolt. Middle: From the center line of the bolts to the center line of the secondary part. Below: From the lower edge of the secondary part to the lowest bolt.

Bolt basic properties


Option	Description	Default
Bolt size	Bolt diameter.	Available sizes are defined in the bolt assembly catalog.
Bolt standard	Bolt standard to be used inside the component.	Available standards are defined in the bolt assembly catalog.
Tolerance	Gap between the bolt and the hole.
Thread in mat	Defines whether the thread may be within the bolted parts when bolts are used with a shaft. This has no effect when full-threaded bolts are used.	`Yes`

Slotted holes

You can define slotted, oversized, or tapped holes.


Option	Description	Default
1	Vertical dimension of slotted hole.	`0`, which results in a round hole.
2	Horizontal dimension of slotted hole, or allowance for oversized holes.	`0`, which results in a round hole.
Hole type	Slotted creates slotted holes. Oversized creates oversized holes. No hole does not create holes. Tapped creates tapped holes.
Rotate Slots	When the hole type is Slotted, this option rotates the slotted holes.
Slots in	Part(s) in which slotted holes are created. The options depend on the component in question.
