Parameters

Name
Type: OnlineSystem String
The name of an existing steel material property.
Fy
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
Fu
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
The minimum tensile stress. [F/L2]
EFy
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
EFu
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
SSType
Type: OnlineSystem Int32 
This is 0 or 1, indicating the stress-strain curve type.
ValueSSType
0User defined
1Parametric - Simple
SSHysType
Type: OnlineSystem Int32 
This is 0 through 7, indicating the stress-strain curve type.
ValueSSHysType
0Elastic
1Kinematic
2Takeda
3Pivot
4Concrete
5BRB Hardening
6Degrading
7Isotropic
StrainAtHardening
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
This item applies only when parametric stress-strain curves are used. It is the strain at the onset of strain hardening.
StrainAtMaxStress
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
This item applies only when parametric stress-strain curves are used. It is the strain at the maximum stress. This item must be larger than the StrainAtHardening item.
StrainAtRupture
Type: OnlineSystem Double 
This item applies only when parametric stress-strain curves are used. It is the strain at rupture. This item must be larger than the StrainAtMaxStress item.
Temp (Optional)
Type: OnlineSystem Double
The temperature at which the specified data is to be retrieved. The temperature must have been defined previously for the material.

This item applies only if the specified material has properties that are temperature dependent. That is, it applies only if properties are specified for the material at more than one temperature.

Return Value

Returns zero if the data is successfully retrieved; otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
