Angle sections

For angle sections, you can specify single or double angle sections.

 

Choices are:

Single angle,

 

Double angle with short legs connected,

 

Double angle with long legs connected,

 

Double angle starred (equal angles only).

Angle section orientation

 

The diagrams above show the orientation of a single angle section and the available double angle sections. Note that the z-axis is the major axis in all cases.

Note that in SPACE GASS 10 and earlier, double equal angle sections with long legs connected were adjusted internally and treated as though their short legs were connected. This adjustment was removed in SPACE GASS 11 and later versions.
