VBA macro name

Output

ElementTopLevel_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs the Z co-ordinate of the ‘higher’ end of an element (i.e the greater of the Z values at each end of an element).  Converts from mm to Metres (i.e 1234 becomes 1.234 )

ElementBaseLevel_mmToM3DecPl

The reverse the macro above, i.e outputs the Z co-ordinate of the lower end of an element, in Metres

ElementTopX_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs the X co-ordinate of the higher end of an element, converted from mm to M

ElementBaseX_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs the X co-ordinate of the lower end of an element, converted from mm to M

ElementTopY_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs the Y co-ordinate of the higher end of an element, converted from mm to M

ElementBaseY_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs the Y co-ordinate of the lowerr end of an element, converted from mm to M

ElementTopXYZ_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs the X,Y and Z co-ordinate of the higher end of an element, converted from mm to M.  The values are comma separated.

i.e produces output like: 1.234, 56.789, 18.023

ElementBaseXYZ_mmToM3DecPl

Reverse of the macro above, produces XYZ values of the lower end of an element.

ElementTopLevel_2DecPl

Outputs the Z co-ordinate of the ‘higher’ end of an element (i.e the greater of the Z values at each end of an element).  Units are not converted, but the value is rounded to 2 decimal places.

i.e a Z coordinate in mm of 1000.234 would be output as 1000.23

ElementTopLevel_0DecPl

Similar to the macro above, except output is rounded to 0 decimal places.

ElementTopLevel_3DecPl

Similar to the above macro, except output is rounded to 3 decimal places

ElementBaseLevel_2DecPl

Similar to the macro above, except the Z co-ordinate is from the lower end of the element, and rounded to 2 decimal places

ElementBaseLevel_3DecPl

Similar to above, again the lower end of the element, output rounded to 3 decimal places.

ElementTopLevel_DecimalFeet

 

ElementBaseLevel_DecimalFeet

 

PadFootingDepth

 

PadFootingLevel

 

ElementLength_3DecPl

This rule outputs the length of an element, between the Start and end point.  Output is in master units and rounded to 3 decimal places.
Note: For curved elements this value is NOT the curve length.

ElementLength_2DecPl

Similar to the above, except rounded to 2 decimal places

ElementLength_0DecPl

Similar to the above, except rounded to 0 decimal places.

ElementLength_mmToM3DecPl

Simialr to the above, except that mm are converted to M, with 3 decimal places (i.e 1234 becomes 1.234 )

ConvertTOS_mmToM3DecPl

Outputs a Top of Steel measurement (TOS) converted from millimetres, to Meters, with 3 decimal places.  (i.e 1234 becomes 1.234 )

 
Note:  This rule should be called using the label format (ignore linewrapping)

%TOS:[CADtools_Triforma_Structural]CustomRules.
ConvertTOS_mmToM3DecPl %
