The Occurrence tab displays the footing properties that you can edit or that are automatically determined by the software at placement. The property name appears on the left side of the grid and the corresponding property value appears on the right side of the grid. If you selected more than one footing, and then selected the properties command, only the common properties between the selected footings display.

When viewing properties for a single footing, the following properties display. More properties may display depending on what you defined in the reference data. Refer to the Structure Reference Data help for more information on properties.

Category

Select the properties that you want to view for the footing. Footing properties are divided into several different categories: Standard and Weight and CG. You select the category to define values for by using the Category option.

Standard

The standard properties that display depend on the reference data for the footing. Because footing reference data is fully customizable, only the common properties are documented.

Name

Displays the name of the footing. The footing name is based on the Name Rule selection. If you want to type a new name for the footing, in the Name Rule box, select User Defined, and then type a name for the footing in the Name box.

Name Rule

Specify the naming rule that you want to use to name this footing.

  • Default Name Rule - Names the footing using the format "<footing type>-<location>-<index>" where <footing type> is what you select in the Type box on the ribbon, <location> is the global workshare location ID, and <index> is a unique index number that starts at 0001. For example, RectSlabFootingAsm-1-0043.

  • Unique Name Rule - Names the footing using the format "<system>-<footing type>-<location>-<index>" where <system> is the name of the parent system to which the footing belongs, <footing type> is what you select in the Type box on the ribbon, <location> is the global workshare location ID, and <index> is a unique index number that starts at 0001. For example, Structure System-RectSlabFootingAsm-1-0043.

  • User Defined - Select to specify the footing name yourself in the Name box.

System

Displays the name of the parent system. You can create new systems in the Systems and Specifications task.

Grout Component

The symbol used to represent the grout component.

Pier Component

The symbol used to represent the pier component.

Slab Component

The symbol used to represent the slab component.

Pier Material

Select the pier material. Available materials are defined in the Catalog task.

Pier Grade

Select the pier material grade. Available material grades are defined in the Catalog task.

Slab Material

Select the slab material.

Slab Grade

Select the slab material grade.

Grout Material

Select the grout material.

Grout Grade

Select the grout material grade.

Detail Reference

Enter the detail drawing number to reference.

With Grout Pad

Specifies whether or not a grout pad is included between the pier and the member being supported.

Reporting Requirement

Specifies whether or not this footing is reported.

Reporting Type

Select whether the footing is to be tracked by the material control system or not.

Pier Length

Displays or specifies the pier length. If this box is read-only and you want to specify the length yourself, then you need to set Pier Sizing Rule to User Defined.

Pier Width

Displays or specifies the pier width. If this box is read-only and you want to specify the width yourself, then you need to set Pier Sizing Rule to User Defined.

Pier Height

Specifies the distance between the top of the supporting slab and the bottom of the grout (if there is a grout pad) or the bottom of the supported member (if there is no grout pad.)

Pier Shape

Displays the pier shape.

Pier Sizing Rule

Select how you want the size of the pier to be calculated.

  • Select Clearance to have the software size the pier length and width based on either the supported member's cross-section size or the grout size if grout is present plus a clearance value that you specify. The maximum range of the cross-section or grout is automatically calculated and the pier length and pier width values are set using the cross-section range plus the value you specify in Pier Edge Clearance.

  • Select User Defined to specify the pier length and width values yourself.

Pier Orientation

Select whether the pier should be oriented relative to the local coordinate system or the global coordinate system.

Pier Rotation Angle

Specify the rotation angle relative to the north (or y-axis) of the coordinate system selected in Pier Orientation.

Pier Edge Clearance

Specify the distance between the side of the pier and the maximum range of either the supported member's cross-section size or the grout size for that side. This value is used when Pier Sizing Rule is set to Clearance.

Pier Size Increment

Specify the step size to increase the pier length and width dimensions when the software calculates them. For example, if the supported member's cross-section range is 18.25 cm by 23.5 cm and you specify a 1 cm size increment, then the software would round up the pier dimensions to 19 cm by 24 cm. If you were to specify a 0.5 cm size increment, then the pier dimensions would be 18.5 cm by 23.5 cm.

Pier Chamfered

Specifies if the corners of square piers are chamfered or not.

Pier Chamfer Size

Specifies the size of the chamfer if Pier Chamfered is set to yes.

Grout Length

Displays the grout length. If this box is read-only and you want to specify the length yourself, then you need to set Grout Sizing Rule to User Defined.

Grout Width

Displays the grout width. If this box is read-only and you want to specify the width yourself, then you need to set Grout Sizing Rule to User Defined.

Grout Height

Specifies the grout height, which is the distance between the top of the pier and the bottom of the supported member.

Volume

Displays the calculated volume of the footing (including all of the components).

Slab Length

Displays or specifies the slab length. If this box is read-only and you want to specify the length yourself, then you need to set Slab Sizing Rule to User Defined.

Slab Width

Displays or specifies the slab width. If this box is read-only and you want to specify the width yourself, then you need to set Slab Sizing Rule to User Defined.

Slab Height

Specifies the distance between the bottom of the slab and the bottom of the pier.

Slab Shape

Displays the slab shape.

Slab Sizing Rule

Select how you want the size of the slab to be calculated.

  • Select Clearance to have the software size the slab length and width based on the pier size plus a clearance value that you specify. The maximum range of the pier is automatically calculated and the slab length and slab width values are set using that range plus the value you specify in Slab Edge Clearance.

  • Select User Defined to specify the slab length and width values yourself.

Slab Orientation

Select whether the slab should be oriented relative to the local coordinate system or the global coordinate system.

Slab Rotation Angle

Specify the rotation angle relative to the north (or y-axis) of the coordinate system selected in Slab Orientation.

Slab Edge Clearance

Specify the distance between the side of the slab and the maximum range of the pier for that side. This value is used when Slab Sizing Rule is set to Clearance.

Slab Size Increment

Specify the step size to increase the slab length and width dimensions when the software calculates them. For example, if the slab is 18.25 cm by 23.5 cm and you specify a 1 cm size increment, then the software would round up the slab dimensions to 19 cm by 24 cm. If you were to specify a 0.5 cm size increment, then the slab dimensions would be 18.5 cm by 23.5 cm.

Surface Area

Displays the total outside surface area of the slab, pier, and grout.

Grout Shape

Select the grout shape that you want to use.

Grout Sizing Rule

Select how you want the size of the grout to be calculated.

  • Select Clearance to have the software size the grout length and width based on the supported member's cross-section size plus a clearance value that you specify. The maximum range of the cross-section is automatically calculated and the grout length and grout width values are set using the cross-section range plus the value you specify in Grout Edge Clearance.

  • Select User Defined to specify the grout length and width values yourself.

Grout Orientation

Select whether the grout should be oriented relative to the local coordinate system or the global coordinate system.

Grout Rotation Angle

Specify the rotation angle relative to the north (or y-axis) of the coordinate system selected in Grout Orientation.

Grout Edge Clearance

Specify the distance between the side of the grout and the maximum range of the supported member's cross-section for that side. This value is used when Grout Sizing Rule is set to Clearance.

Weight and CG

Displays the center-of-gravity and the weight of the selected object. The center-of-gravity locations are displayed relative to the active coordinate system along the X-, Y-, and Z-axes. The weight value that is displayed in the properties dialog is calculated as the material density multiplied by the object's solid volume. Therefore, the material of the object affects the weight value that is displayed here. Check the material assigned to the object if the weight displayed is an improbable value. For the most accurate weight calculation, use the Tools > Run Reports command.

Dry Weight

Specifies the dry weight of the object.

Dry CG X

Specifies the X-axis location of the dry center-of-gravity.

Dry CG Y

Specifies the Y-axis location of the dry center-of-gravity.

Dry CG Z

Specifies the Z-axis location of the dry center-of-gravity.

Dry WCG Origin

Specifies the way in which the dry weight center-of-gravity location is defined. The list is defined by the WCGOrigin codelist.

Computed

Indicates that the software calculates the origin location.

Defined

Indicates that you want to manually define the dry weight center-of-gravity location relative to the active coordinate system.
