Structural Reference Data Marine Mode Guide 9
This document is an overview of the Intergraph SmartTM 3D structural reference data library. The marine library is used by tasks such as Molded Forms, Structural Detailing, Planning, and Structural Manufacturing as a base set of reference data and a starting point for customization. You can use this document to determine the available reference data and compare it with the standards of your company.
This overview is not intended to be a substitute for reference data training, so it does not describe how to customize, install, or maintain the data.
Documentation Set Intergraph SmartTM 3D Documentation is available as Adobe PDF files. The content is the same as the online Help. To access these PDF documents, click Help > Printable Guides in the software.
The documentation set is divided into four categories:
Administrative guides contain information about installing, configuring, customizing, and troubleshooting.
User's guides provide command reference and how-to information for working in each task.
Reference data guides define the reference data workbooks. Not all tasks have reference data.

Member cross-section symbols are used in the Structure task.
All section tables delivered with the software use a specific set of cross-section symbols. Some section tables use all the cross-section symbols in the set; some tables only use a subset of the cross-section symbols. Each cross-section symbol has its own set of properties. When looking at a section table workbook, you can determine the cross-section symbol that is being referenced by that particular sheet by looking at the SymbolDefinition entry at the top of the sheet.
The cross-section symbols are delivered with the reference data software in the [Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\CrossSections folder. You can create your own custom cross-section symbols, sometimes referred to as arbitrary sections, using the 2D Symbols utility that is delivered with the software.
The software uses the simple physical representation of the cross-section symbol to display the member geometry in the model. You can change the display representation using the Selected Aspects option of Format > View.
The delivered symbols contain a detailed physical representation. This representation is available only for marine models, and is not used for plant and materials handling models.
The delivered symbols also contain a production physical representation. This representation is available only for marine models in the Structural Manufacturing task, and is not used for plant and materials handling models.
For more information, see Cross-Section Symbol Representations in the 2D Symbols User's Guide.

Cross Section Symbol 2L The 2L cross section symbol defines double-angle sections and uses the following properties.
Section Name - Type the section name. This name appears when you label members. The section name must be unique within the section standard.
Short Name - Type the short name for the section.
EDI Name - Type the Electronic Data Interchange name for the section. This name is used when translating sections through CIMsteel. This property is currently not used.

Group Id - Type the material group identification for the section.
Unit Weight - Type the weight of the section. The unit weight is defined in mass per length, pound per foot (lb/ft).
Area - Type the cross-sectional area for the section. The area is defined in square inches or square millimeters.
Depth - Type the depth for the section (longer legs). The depth is defined in inches or millimeters.
d - Type the other depth for the section (shorter legs). The depth is defined in inches or millimeters.
bf - Type the width of a single angle. The width is defined in inches or millimeters.
Width - Type the width of the entire section. The width is defined in inches or millimeters.
Perimeter - Type the outside perimeter of the section.
tf - Type the flange thickness for the section. The thickness is defined in inches or millimeters.
tw - Type the web thickness for the section. The thickness is defined in inches or millimeters.
kdesign - Type the distance from outer face of the flange to the web toe of the fillet of the rolled shape or the equivalent distance on the welded section.
kdetail - Type the distance from outer face of the flange to the web toe of the fillet of the rolled shape or the equivalent distance on welded section.
bb - Enter the back-to-back spacing on the section.
CentroidY - Type the centroid location along the y-axis. The location is defined in inches or millimeters.
Ixx - Type the moment of inertia for the section's local x-axis.
Zxx - Type the plastic section modulus for the section's local x-axis.
Sxx - Type the section modulus for the section's local x-axis.
Rxx - Type the radius of gyration for the section's local x-axis.
Ryy - Type the radius of gyration for the section's local y-axis.
ro - Type the polar radius of gyration about the shear center.
H - Type the flexural constant.
bb Configuration - Specifies which legs of the angles are placed back-to-back. Type 0 for equal leg angle. Type 1 to place the long legs back-to-back. Type 2 to place the short legs back-to-back.
