Vertical Flange Gussets
|
- Vertical
Gussets – When checked, creates plates normal to the base plate in
a direction parallel to the cross-sectional Y axis of the shape selected.
- Length – Sets
the plate dimension in a direction parallel to the width of the base plate. A
positive value determines the length. A negative value is not permitted. A
value of 0 sets the length to the width of the base plate. The default is 0.
- Thickness –
Sets the gusset plate thickness. A positive value determine the thickness. A
negative value of value of 0 is not permitted. The default is 8 or 0.25
depending on the units setting.
- Chamfer
Horiz. / Vert. – Sets the horizontal / vertical dimension for the
chamfer on the plate. A positive value determines the chamfer size. A negative
value is not permitted. A value of 0 for either Chamfer Horz. or Chamfer Vert.
indicates no chamfer is to be created. The default is 20 or 0.75 depending on
the units setting.
- Height – Sets
the plate dimension in a direction parallel to the normal of the base plate. A
positive value determines the height. A negative value or a value of 0 is not
permitted. The default is 100 or 4 depending on the units setting.
- Offset – Sets
the offset dimension from the shape selected to the vertical gusset plate. A
positive or negative value to determines the offset from the flange of the
selected shape to the inside face of the plate. A value of 0 indicates no
offset. The default is 0.
- Middle
Flange Gusset – When checked, creates two plates normal to the base
plate in a direction parallel to the cross-sectional Y axis of the shape
selected. Plates are position central to the selected shape. All dimensions are
that of the Vertical Gussets.

Horizontal Flange Gussets
|
- Horizontal
Gussets – When checked, plates normal to the base plate in a
direction parallel to the cross-sectional X axis of the shape selected.
- Length – Sets
the plate dimension in a direction parallel to the length of the base plate. A
positive value determine the length. A negative value is not permitted. A value
of 0 sets the length to the width of the base plate. The default is 0.
Note: If
Vertical Gussets are selected the length is calculated to fit between the
vertical plates.
- Thickness –
Sets the base plate thickness. A positive value determines the thickness. A
negative value of value of 0 is not permitted. The default is 8 or 0.25
depending on the units setting.
- Chamfer
Horiz. / Vert. – Sets the horizontal / vertical dimension for the
chamfer on the plate. A positive value determines the chamfer size. A negative
value is not permitted. A value of 0 for either Chamfer Horz. or Chamfer Vert.
indicates no chamfer is to be created. The default is 20 or 0.75 depending on
the units setting.
- Height – Sets
the dimension in a direction parallel to the normal of the base plate. A
positive value determines the height. A negative value or a value of 0 is not
permitted. The default is 100 or 4 depending on the units setting.
- Offset – Sets
the offset dimension from the shape selected to the horizontal gusset plate. A
positive or negative value to determines the offset from the flange of the
selected shape to the inside face of the plate. A value of 0 indicates no
offset. The default is 0.
