The Default Properties dialog defines properties to use when the object being imported does not have a recognized property. You activate this dialog from the main Import Structure Dialog by clicking the Defaults button.

Member Defaults

Type Category

Select the type category to use when a member being imported does not have a recognized type category. You can define a custom member type category on the Structural Member Type sheet in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook.

Type

Select the type to use when a member being imported does not have a recognized type. The properties change depending on the member type that you select. You can define a custom member type on the Structural Member Type sheet in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook.

Section Name

Select the cross-section to use when a member being imported does not have a recognized section. Sections are defined in the reference data. See the Structural Reference Data Overview for more information about reference data.

Material Name

Select the material to use when a member being imported does not have a recognized material.

Material Grade

Select the material grade to use when a member being imported does not have a recognized material grade.

Slab Defaults

Type

Select the slab type to use when a slab being imported does not have a recognized slab type.

Composition

Select the slab composition to use when a slab being imported does not have a recognized slab composition.

Material Name

Select the material to use when a slab being imported does not have a recognized material.

Material Grade

Select the material grade to use when a slab being imported does not have a recognized material grade.

Plate Defaults

Type

By default, all plates are imported as General plate systems. You cannot change this value.

Naming Category

Select a category for the plate system. Categories specify the role of the plate system in the model. The category is also used by the naming rule to name the plate part that is a child to the plate system.

Tightness

Select the level of tightness as it applies to the entire plate system.

Continuity

Select the continuity type for the plate system. Continuity defines how the plate system should react when it intersects another plate or profile system. Select Continuous to indicate that the plate system should penetrate the other system. Select Intercostal to indicate that the plate system should be penetrated by the other system.

Priority

Specify the continuity priority. This priority is used to specify which plate system is penetrated when two plate systems intersect but have the same Continuity value. Plate systems with a lower continuity priority (1, 2, 3, for example) penetrate plate systems with a higher continuity priority (7, 8, 9, for example).

Material

Specifies the object material type, such as Steel - Carbon or Steel - High Strength.

Grade

Specifies the object material grade, such as A36 or A529.

Thickness

Specifies the material thickness for the plate system.

Specification

Select the structural specification for the plate system.
