Option Description Default Other
Restraint Type
(Standard, SW Cleat)
To obtain the correct Albion cleat, set restraint type to SW Cleat. Selecting Standard will result in an RSA profile being used for the cleat. The default is set to Standard.  
Weld Cleat on (Near Side, Far Side) This defines which side of the secondary member the cleat is welded to. The default is set to Near Side.  
Sheeting Line (Standard, Reversed) Only available using the Restraint Type SW Cleat. This defines which side of the secondary member to use as the sheeting line. The Albion cleats are handed using a square hole in the top corner, this setting defines which side this hole goes to. The default is set to Standard.  
Free dist Primary to L Profile This is used to specify the clearance between the cleats defined in the joint and the primary member. If no value is entered here then the clearance will default to 0.

Secondary member cut back This determines the position to which the end of the secondary members are fitted, measured from the extremities of the primary member. The default will give a minimum clearance of 5mm from the primary which will be rounded to give a whole value when measured from the centre-line of the primary.

Angle Cleat Length This parameter sets the length of the cleat. This value will come from the data files.

Place Cleats on (Left, Right, Both) This specifies the positions where cleats are to be applied. The position is determined relative to the first secondary that is picked, looking along the secondary and into the joint. The default is set to Left.
