Specifies the general properties of the bracket.

Name

Specifies the name of the plate part. Names generated by a rule include a Global Workshare name rule ID if the name rule ID was defined when the model database was created. See Global Workshare in the Global Workshare Help.

Rule

Specifies the naming rule to use to name the plate part. Select User Defined to type a name in the Name box.

Type

Specifies the type of plate part that you are placing. The default for a bracket part is Bracket.

Naming Category

Specifies a category for the plate part. The category specifies the role of the plate part in the model and is used by the naming rule to name the plate part.

Parent System

Specifies the parent plate system for the bracket part. The default for a bracket part is the leaf plate system of the first bracket support. You can change the parent system to the root plate system (the parent of the leaf plate system), the root or leaf plate system of another bracket support, or a system defined in the Systems and Specifications task. When the bracket part is created, the property values for the parent plate system are used for the initial bracket property values. When a parent property value changes, the corresponding bracket property value is not updated.

Surface Geometry Type

Displays Planar Plate, similar to the Molded Forms command used to create a planar plate system.

Specification

Specifies the structural specification for the plate part.

Description

Specifies a description for the plate part.

Tightness

Specifies the level of tightness as it applies to the entire plate part.

Board Management (for Structural Detailing)

Symmetry (for Structural Detailing)

Displays the symmetry value for the part. The symmetry value is determined by the Board Management Service.

Manually Override (for Structural Detailing)

Determines whether the Board Management processes the part. Select this option to stop the Board Management Service from considering the part.

Symmetrical Part (for Structural Detailing)

Displays the name of the symmetrical part, if available. The symmetrical part is determined by the Board Management Service.

Structural Priority

Specifies the priority assigned to the object. Structural priority groups and filters plates, such as is needed in Drawings and Reports. The list is defined by the StructuralMemberPriority codelist.

Primary

The default value for Molded Forms plate systems.

Secondary

The default value for Molded Forms bracket systems.

Tertiary

The default value for Structural Detailing parts, such as collars, standalone plate parts, lapped plate parts, bracket parts, and plate edge reinforcements. These parts do not have parent systems.
