structural_sections.steel.steel_cross_section

Module containing the class definition for a steel cross-section.

Classes:

  • FabricationMethod –

    Enumeration of steel cross-section fabrication methods.

  • SteelCrossSection –

    Representation of a steel cross-section for any given profile and material.

Bases: StrEnum

Enumeration of steel cross-section fabrication methods.

structural_sections.steel.steel_cross_section.SteelCrossSection dataclass 

SteelCrossSection(
    *,
    profile: Profile,
    material: SteelMaterial,
    fabrication_method: FabricationMethod | None = None,
)

Representation of a steel cross-section for any given profile and material.

Parameters:

  • profile (Profile) –

    The profile. This can be a predefined profile or a generic profile.

  • material (SteelMaterial) –

    The material type of the steel.

  • fabrication_method (Optional[FabricationMethod], default: None ) –

    The fabrication method of the steel cross-section, either FabricationMethod.COLD_FORMED, FabricationMethod.HOT_ROLLED, or FabricationMethod.WELDED. Default is None.

structural_sections.steel.steel_cross_section.SteelCrossSection.yield_strength property 

yield_strength: MPA

Get the yield strength of the steel material.

Returns:

  • MPA –

    The yield strength of the steel material.
