Detailed Description

This class defines a beam with a generic section.

It is represented as a full rectangular beam with the following parameters:

• HY1 = sqrt(12 * IZ1 / A1)
• HZ1 = sqrt(12 * IY1 / A1)
• HY2 = sqrt(12 * IZ2 / A2)
• HZ2 = sqrt(12 * IY2 / A2)

See StructuralElementPart for the description of the other parameters.
