Concrete Design > RC Design Criteria > RC Plate Design Criteria prompts you with the following dialog.
It allows you to define and/or assign different design criteria to selected concrete plates. An ID is assigned automatically to each design criterion by the program and may not be changed. You may assign a label with 127 maximum characters to each design criterion. The plate design criteria include:
•Bottom-x, bottom-y, top-x and top-y concrete covers measured from plate edge to the centroid of bars
You may add one or more criteria by clicking the “New Rows” button. You may also print all design criteria in the list by clicking the “Print” button. The “Assign active criteria to selected shells” checkbox may be used to assign the active plate design criterion to selected plates. The active criterion refers to the one that currently has focus in the list in the dialog. In order for plate design criteria assignments to take place, plates must be selected beforehand.
The program always has a default plate design criterion labeled “Default”. You may not delete this criterion or change its label. You may however change its properties.
