Shape Library

The xsection.library submodule holds several convenience classes that wrap the core sections:

Circle(radius[, centroid, mesh_scale, divisions])	A discrete circle section with exact area.
Rectangle(b, d[, mesh_scale, centroid])	A rectanglular section.
HollowRectangle(b, d[, t, mesh_scale, centroid])	A hollow rectanglular section.
WideFlange(d[, bf, tw, tf, t, b, k, k1, ...])	A wide flange (I) section.
HalfFlange(d[, bf, tw, tf, t, b, k, ...])	A half wide flange (T) section.
DoubleFlange(d, b1, b2, tw, t1, t2[, ...])	Double-flange (I) section.
Channel(d, b[, tf, tw, k, ho, sf, centroid, ...])	A channel (C) section.
Angle(b, d, t[, k, centroid, mesh_scale])	An angle (L) section.
Equigon(radius[, centroid, mesh_scale, ...])	A regular (equilateral and equiangular) polygon
SingleCellGirder(d, br6, br4, br3, br1, tr5, ...)	Single-cell box girder
from_aisc(identifier[, units, fillet])	Create a homogeneous cross-section from an AISC identifier.
aisc_data(identifier[, props, units])	Return a dictionary of cross section properties from the AISC database.
