Parameters
- Name
- Type:
System String
The name of an existing frame object or group, depending on the
value of the ItemType item.
- MyType
- Type: System Int32
This is an integer from the list below, indicating the design procedure type desired
for the specified frame object.
- Program determined = 0
- Steel Frame Design = 1
- Concrete Frame Design = 2
- Composite Beam Design = 3
- Steel Joist Design = 4
- No Design = 7
- Composite Column Design = 13
- ItemType (Optional)
- Type: ETABS2015 eItemType
This is one of the following items in the eItemType enumeration:
- Object = 0
- Group = 1
- SelectedObjects = 2
If this item is Objects, the assignment is made to the frame object
specified by the Name item.
If this item is Group, the assignment is made to all frame objects
in the group specified by the Name item.
If this item is SelectedObjects, the assignment is made to all
selected frame objects and the Name item is ignored.
Return Value
Returns zero if the design procedure is successfully set;
otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
