The standalone stiffener profile parts commands define a single profile part or multiple profile parts.

The only method available to create a standalone stiffener part is by intersection.

When you create a landing curve, it could be linear, curved, polyline, circle, circular arc, or elliptical in shape.

You can use various input methods to create profile parts. You choose a method based on the type of trace curve that you need to create.

You can use any of the following methods to easily create profile parts for vertical, horizontal, slope, and curve:

  • Typing the location line and the inclination angle from an orthogonal surface

  • Specifying a distance from a reference surface or grid system

  • Referring an existing surface and defining a nonorthogonal surface tangent to the existing surface (for example, the surface of a stiffener connected to a longitudinal frame).

Place Stiffener Profile Part by Intersection Command

Creates a standalone stiffener profile on the selected detailed plate part by defining the landing curve as the intersection of the selected plate part and a grid plane.

Profile Edge Reinforcement Part

Places a standalone profile part along the free edge of a plate part.
