-
Click Stiffener Profile System by Projection Command to display the Stiffener Profile System by Projection Ribbon.
-
Select the plate system to stiffen.
-
Select the Section Type and Section Size.
-
Define the landing curve using one of the following methods:
-
Click Profile Orientation Definition .
-
Define the orientation of the stiffener profile with regard to the plate system.
-
Click Boundary Definition .
-
Define the boundaries for the stiffener profile.
-
Click Accept .
-
If the boundary definition results in two solutions, pick the needed solution using the following procedure:
-
Click Finish.
-
If you do not select boundaries, the software uses the entire length of the base curve to apply to the resulting profile curves.
-
Stiffener profiles are always associated with the plate system to which they belong.
-
If the plate system is symmetrical about the sketch plane (For example, a revolved plate system or a hull), an unbounded sketched seam curve displays on both sides of the plate system. If you want the profile on only one side, then you must add a boundary to the profile so that the command switches to Solve Ambiguity . The plate system on which the profile is placed can also be selected as its own boundary to meet this requirement.
