StepJoint

class compas_timber.fabrication.StepJoint

Bases: BTLxProcessing

Represents a Step Joint feature to be made on a beam.

Parameters:

orientationint

The orientation of the cut. Must be either OrientationType.START or OrientationType.END.

start_xfloat

The start x-coordinate of the cut in parametric space of the reference side. -100000.0 < start_x < 100000.0.

strut_inclinationfloat

The inclination of the strut. 0.1 < strut_inclination < 179.9.

step_depthfloat

The depth of the step. step_depth < 50000.0.

heel_depthfloat

The depth of the heel. heel_depth < 50000.0.

step_shapestr

The shape of the step. Must be either ‘double’, ‘step’, ‘heel’, or ‘taperedheel’.

tenonstr

The presence of a tenon. Must be either ‘no’ or ‘yes’.

tenon_widthfloat

The width of the tenon. tenon_width < 1000.0.

tenon_heightfloat

The height of the tenon. tenon_height < 1000.0.

Methods
