Features

Features are additional geometric operations on beams:

Brep Subtraction Feature

BrepSubtractionFeature is a boolean operation to subtract any Brep geometry from a beam.

  • Beam : the beam to be subtracted from

  • Brep : the Brep geometry to subtract as a Brep

Brep Drill Hole Feature

BrepDrillHoleFeature is a boolean operation to subtract a hole from a beam.

  • Beam : the beam to be drilled

  • Line : the axis of the hole as a Line

  • Diameter : the diameter of the hole

Trim Feature

TrimFeature cuts a beam with a Plane. The part of the beam lying on the z-positive side of the plane will be removed.

  • Beam : the beam to be trimmed

  • Plane : the plane to trim the beam as a surface

The output Feature is to be used as input for the Model component. See Model.
