SetPrecastI_1

Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.PropFrame.SetPrecastI_1

VB6 Procedure

Function SetPrecastI_1(ByVal Name As String, ByVal MatProp 
 As String, ByRef b() As Double, ByRef d() As Double, ByRef t() As Double, 
 ByRef c As Double,Optional ByVal Color As Long = -1, Optional ByVal Notes 
 As String = "", Optional ByVal GUID As String = "") 
 As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of an existing or new frame section property. 
 If this is an existing property, that property is modified; otherwise, 
 a new property is added.

MatProp

The name of the material property for the section.

b

This is an array, dimensioned to 3, containing the horizontal 
 section dimensions. [L]

b(0) = B1 (> 0)

b(1) = B2 (> 0)

b(2) = B3 (>= 0)

b(3) = B4 (>= 0)

Section dimensions B1 through B4 are defined on the 
 precast concrete I girder definition form.

d

This is an array, dimensioned to 6, containing the vertical 
 section dimensions. [L]

d(0) = D1 (> 0)

d(1) = D2 (> 0)

d(2) = D3 (>= 0)

d(3) = D4 (>= 0)

d(4) = D5 (> 0)

d(5) = D6 (>= 0)

d(6) = D7 (>=0)

Section dimensions D1 through D7 are defined on the 
 precast concrete I girder definition form.

t

This is an array, dimensioned to 1, containing the web 
 thickness dimensions. [L]

T(0) 
 = T1 (> 0)

T(1) = T2 (> 0)

Section dimensions T1 and T2 are defined on the precast 
 I girder definition form.

c

The bottom flange chamfer dimension, denoted as C1 on 
 the precast concrete I girder definition form.

Color

The display color assigned to the section. If Color 
 is specified as -1, the program will automatically assign a color.

Notes

The notes, if any, assigned to the section.

GUID

The GUID (global unique identifier), if any, assigned 
 to the section. If this item is input as Default, the program assigns 
 a GUID to the section.

Remarks

This function initializes a precast concrete I girder 
 frame section property. If this function is called for an existing frame 
 section property, all items for the section are reset to their default 
 value.

The function returns zero if the section property is 
 successfully initialized; otherwise it returns a nonzero value.

VBA Example

Sub SetFramePropPrecastI_1()

'dimension variables

Dim SapObject as cOAPI

Dim SapModel As cSapModel

Dim ret As Long

Dim bb() As Double

Dim dd() As Double

Dim tt() As Double

Dim cc As Double

'create Sap2000 object

Set SapObject = CreateObject("CSI.SAP2000.API.SapObject")

'start Sap2000 application

'create SapModel object

Set SapModel = SapObject.SapModel

'initialize model

ret = SapModel.InitializeNewModel

'create model from template

ret = SapModel.File.New2DFrame(PortalFrame, 
 2, 144, 2, 288)

'set new frame section property

ReDim bb(3)

ReDim dd(6)

ReDim tt(1)

bb(0) = 12

bb(1) = 16

bb(2) = 0

bb(3) = 0

dd(3) = 0

dd(4) = 5

dd(5) = 5

dd(6) = 0

tt(0) = 6

tt(1) = 6

cc = 0

ret = SapModel.PropFrame.SetPrecastI_1("PC1", 
 "4000Psi", bb, dd, tt, cc)

'close Sap2000

SapObject.ApplicationExit False

Set SapModel = Nothing

Set SapObject = Nothing

End Sub
