Base Data#

In this example we will demonstrate:

Retrieving and displaying Base Data
Modifying Model Main data
Configuring Add-ons
Setting Standards for Load and Design
Applying the Updated Base Data

from dlubal.api import rsection

with rsection.Application() as rsection_app:

    # Step 1: Retrieve the Base data (active model)
    base_data: rsection.BaseData  = rsection_app.get_base_data()
    print(f"BASE DATA:\n{base_data}")

    # Step 2: Modify the values in Base data object
    # Main model data
    base_data.main.model_description = "cold_formed"
    base_data.main.comment = "thin_walled"
    base_data.main.analysis_method = rsection.BaseData.Main.ANALYSIS_METHOD_THIN_WALLED
    # Add-ons activation
    base_data.addons.has_effective_section_properties_active = True
    # Standards assignment
    base_data.standards.effective_section_standard = rsection.BaseData.Standards.EFFECTIVE_SECTION_STANDARD_EN_1993_1_3_COLD_FORMED

    # Step 3: Apply the updated Base data to the model
    rsection_app.set_base_data(base_data=base_data)

using Rsection = Dlubal.Api.Rsection;

ApplicationRsection? RsectionApp = null;

try
{
    RsectionApp = new ApplicationRsection();

    Rsection.BaseData? baseData = await RsectionApp.get_base_data();
    Console.WriteLine($"BASE DATA:\n{baseData}");

    baseData.Main.ModelDescription = "cold_formed";
    baseData.Main.Comment = "thin_walled";
    baseData.Main.AnalysisMethod = Rsection.BaseData.Types.Main.Types.AnalysisMethod.ThinWalled;

    baseData.Addons.HasEffectiveSectionPropertiesActive = true;
    baseData.Standards.EffectiveSectionStandard = Rsection.BaseData.Types.Standards.Types.EffectiveSectionStandard.En199313ColdFormed;

    await RsectionApp.set_base_data( baseData: baseData);

}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Error: {ex.Message}");
}
finally
{
    if (RsectionApp != null) await RsectionApp.close_connection();
