Knuckle Properties
Override Rule
Allows you to manually specify the manufacturing method. If this option is cleared, the rules determine the method.
Manufacturing Method
Specifies the method for creating the manual profile knuckle. This option is only available if Override Rule is selected. Select one of the following options:
Split
The knuckle point behaves as a design seam. You must run Execute Split Command to split the profile system. During detailing, the end cut rules determines the part geometry. The plane bisecting the knuckle angle is passed to the end cut rules.
Ignore
The profile part is not affected. The knuckle point is ignored and no knuckle is created.
Extend
Allows the tangential extension of the profile beyond the profile seam. The Structural Detailing task determines part geometry and applicable end cuts.
Split and Extend
Allows the profile system to split at the knuckle, and also at the tangential extension of the part beyond the knuckle.
You cannot modify the properties for Manufacturing Method when creating a new profile knuckle.
Inner Radius
Specify the inner radius dimension of the knuckle. This box is read-only if Override Rule is cleared.
Outer Radius
Specify the outer radius dimension of the knuckle. This box is read-only if Override Rule is cleared.
Knuckle Angle
Displays the angle of the knuckle bend.
Related Plate Knuckle
