Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.PropMaterial.GetOConcrete

VB6 Procedure

Function GetOConcrete(ByVal Name As String, ByRef fc As Double, ByRef IsLightweight As Boolean, ByRef fcsfactor As Double, ByRef SSType As Long, ByRef SSHysType As Long, ByRef StrainAtfc As Double, ByRef StrainUltimate As Double, ByRef FrictionAngle As Double, ByRef DilatationalAngle As Double, Optional ByVal Temp As Double = 0) As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of an existing concrete material property.

fc

The concrete compressive strength. [F/L
2
]

IsLightweight

If this item is True, the concrete is assumed to be lightweight concrete.

fcsfactor

The shear strength reduction factor for lightweight concrete.

eFu

The expected tensile stress. [F/L
2
]

SSType

This is 0, 1 or 2, indicating the stress-strain curve type.

0 = User defined

1 = Parametric - Simple

2 = Parametric - Mander

SSHysType

This is 0, 1 or 2, indicating the stress-strain hysteresis type.

0 = Elastic

1 = Kinematic

2 = Takeda

StrainAtfc

This item applies only to parametric stress-strain curves. It is the strain at the unconfined compressive strength.

StrainUltimate

This item applies only to parametric stress-strain curves. It is the ultimate unconfined strain capacity.

FrictionAngle

The Drucker-Prager friction angle, 0 <= FrictionAngle < 90. [deg]

DilatationalAngle

The Drucker-Prager dilatational angle, 0 <= DilatationalAngle < 90. [deg]

Temp

This item applies only if the specified material has properties that are temperature dependent. That is, it applies only if properties are specified for the material at more than one temperature.

This item is the temperature at which the specified data is to be retrieved. The temperature must have been defined previously for the material.

Remarks

This function retrieves the other material property data for concrete materials.

The function returns zero if the data is successfully retrieved; otherwise it returns a nonzero value. The function returns an error if the specified material is not concrete.
