Interface ILineGroup

A linear reinforcement group that contains a layer of reinforcement bars or bundles of bars arranged in a straight line. The length of ILineGroup is defined by the positions of the first and last bars or bundles of bars, FirstBarPosition and LastBarPosition.

Namespace: Oasys.AdSec.Reinforcement.Groups

Assembly: AdSec_API_IDL.dll

Syntax

public interface ILineGroup : ILongitudinalGroup, IGroup

Remarks

ILineGroup contains a ILayer, which defines the reinforcement bundling and spacing along the line. This group doesn't support multiple layers of reinforcement.

• C#
• Python
