StructuralSurfaceAction

Surface load
Defines actions on surfaces – plates, walls. The surface load is defined on the whole slab automatically. If only a part of the main slab is supposed to be subject to this load, a subregion (StructuralSurfaceMemberRegion) must be defined inside the main slab.
Specification in the excel
Name of the column header
Type of data
Value example or enum definition
Required value
Description
Name
String
PF3
yes
Human readable unique name of the force
Direction
Enum
X
Y
Z
yes
Specifies the base direction of the load
Type
String
Standard
no
This property defines what the load is caused by, E.g. Standard, Wind, Snow, Self weight, Hoar Frost, Predefined, Plane Load, Water Pond, Water Pressure, Soil Pressure, Generated Water, Generated Soil
Force action
Enum
On 2D member
On 2D member region
On 2D member distribution
yes
Specifies on which type of object the load acts
Value [kN/m2]
Double
-10
yes
Specifies the size of the load in kiloNewtons per square meter.
2D Member
String
S15
yes, if Force action = On 2D member
The name of the StructuralSurfaceMember to which is the surface load related to
2D Member Region
String
R1
yes, if Force action = On 2D member region
The name of the StructuralSurfaceMemberRegion to which is the surface load related to
2D Member Distribution
String
FL1
yes, if Force action = 2D Member Distribution
The name of the StructuralSurfaceActionDistri to which is the surface load related to.
Load case
String
LC5
yes
The name of the load case to which the force belongs
Coordinate system
Enum
Global
Local
yes
Defines the co-ordinate system of the member in which the load is applied
Location
Enum
Length
Projection
yes
Specifies whether the load is "put directly on an inclined 2D member" or whether the "projection on plan" is defined.
Parent ID
String
67b35d84-3d04-47aa-aa4a-dc1263982320
no
Is filled for objects created be dividing curved geometry to series of straight line objects.

Parent ID will ensure that curved edge is imported as straight parts to nonsupporting application, and back to original supporting application as curved geometry.
To ensure successful round trip of segmented objects and their related objects, Parent ID needs to be present in both directions.
