| Option | Description | Default | Other | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeve/Stub (Default, None, Sleeve, Stub, Heavy End Bay) | This allows the user to select if the connection has a sleeve, stub, or nothing. A sleeve can be selected to allow for future extensions at gable ends. A stub can only be selected for gable ends. If Default is set then a sleeve will not be applied. | The default is set to Default. | |||||
| Force Sleeve Holes (No, Yes) | This allows the user to force holes to be placed in the purlins corresponding to the sleeve hole positions when there is no sleeve. This will be done only if this option is set to Yes, otherwise when set to No these holes will be omitted. | The default is set to No. | |||||
| Sleeve Assembly Prefix | This sets the assembly prefix for the sleeve/stub defined in the joint. | The default is set to SA. | |||||
| Sleeve Assembly Start Number | This sets the assembly start number for the sleeve/stub defined in the joint. | The default setting is 1. | |||||
| Overhang dim. Gables only | This specifies the overhang dimension for a gable end only. The dimension is measured from the centre of the cleat. | Where a sleeve is defined the purlin will be cut back to the standard manufacturer's end gap and the sleeve/stub will be positioned to the overhang. Otherwise the purlin will be extended to the overhang point. | Image
| ||||
| Cleat length | This defines the full length of the cleat. For standard or non-standard cleats, it need only be given where the length is not to be the same as that derived from the standard hole positions. For a connection to a stanchion web, the cleat may be automatically extended to preserve the top end distance for the holes. Some cleats, e.g. angles, cannot be extended in this way, and so an alternative cleat must be used by specifying the cleat profile in the parts tab. | This value will come from the data files. | Image
| ||||
| Cleat orient (Default, Along, Up) | This sets whether a non-standard cleat's length is along the rafter, or up from the rafter. For flat plates the default is set to Up. For angle cleats the default is set to Along. | The default is set to Default. | Image
| ||||
| Stiffened Cleat (No, Yes, Default) | If set to Yes, and the cleat being used has a stiffened option in the data files, then the cleat will be stiffened in the model. | The default is set to No. | |||||
| Cleats are (Bolted, Welded, Workshop Bolts) | This specifies whether the cleat is welded or bolted to the rafter. If the cleat profile is not explicitly given in the parts dialogue the standard profile will be used from the data files. | The default is set to Welded. | |||||
| Bolt-on Cleat Centre (Default, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, User) | This centres between the two bolts in the bolt on plate in mm. If centres is zero one bolt will be placed in the plate. If set to Default this value will come from the data files. | The default is set to Default. | Image
| ||||
| Bolt-on Cleat Backmark | This sets the distance from the front of the cleat in mm. | This value will come from the data files. | See above. | ||||
| Cleat Finish (Default, Black, Galvanised, Powder coated) | This specifies the finish of the cleat. If set to Default the cleat finish will be black. | The default is set to Default. | |||||
| Standard Bolts to Purlin | This defines the standard of all bolts that pass through the purlins in the joint. Available standards are defined in the bolt assembly database. This standard also applies to all bolts to the rafter providing the standard of these bolts is not explicitly set by the following parameter and to the bottom stay bolts if a bolt standard is not specified in the stay data file. | The default setting is 8.8XOX. | |||||
| Standard Bolts to Rafter | This defines the standard of all bolts that pass through the rafter in the joint. Available standards are defined in the bolt assembly database. | The default setting is 8.8XOX. | |||||
| Orientation Hole (None, Left, Right, Both) | This specifies whether to place a hole on the outside flange of the rail. | The default is set to None. |
| ||||
| Multicleat (Double, Single) | This spacifies which cleat type to use. If set to Single a cleat with only one pair of bolts will be used, this is for gable ends. | The default is set to Double. |
| ||||
| Cleat Holes (No, Yes) | If set to Yes additional cosmetic holes will be drawn for the multicleats. | The default is set to No. |
