Description

Base class for properties of beam sections.

A beam section can be shared between multiple beams. A beam section contains the models for elasticity, plasticity, damping, etc.

Public Member Functions
void	SetDrawThickness (double thickness_y, double thickness_z)
	Sets the rectangular thickness of the beam on y and z directions, only for drawing/rendering purposes (these thickness values do NOT have any meaning at a physical level, use ChBeamSectionBasic::SetAsRectangularSection()

double	GetDrawThicknessY ()

double	GetDrawThicknessZ ()

bool	IsCircular ()
	Tells if the section must be drawn as a circular section instead than default rectangular.

void	SetCircular (bool ic)
	Set if the section must be drawn as a circular section instead than default rectangular.

void	SetDrawCircularRadius (double draw_rad)
	Sets the radius of the beam if in 'circular section' draw mode, only for drawing/rendering purposes (this radius value do NOT have any meaning at a physical level, use ChBeamSectionBasic::SetAsCircularSection()

double	GetDrawCircularRadius ()
