Parameters

Name
Type: SystemString
The name of an existing concrete material property.
Fc
Type: SystemDouble
IsLightweight
Type: SystemBoolean
If this item is True, the concrete is assumed to be lightweight concrete.
FcsFactor
Type: SystemDouble
SSType
Type: SystemInt32
This is 0, 1 or 2, indicating the stress-strain curve type.
ValueSSType
0User defined
1Parametric - Simple
2Parametric - Mander
SSHysType
Type: SystemInt32
This is 0 through 7, indicating the stress-strain curve type.
ValueSSHysType
0Elastic
1Kinematic
2Takeda
3Pivot
4Concrete
5BRB Hardening
6Degrading
7Isotropic
StrainAtFc
Type: SystemDouble
StrainUltimate
Type: SystemDouble
This item applies only to parametric stress-strain curves. It is the ultimate unconfined strain capacity. This item must be larger than the StrainAtfc item
FinalSlope
Type: SystemDouble
This item applies only to parametric stress-strain curves. It is a multiplier on the material modulus of elasticity, E. This value multiplied times E gives the final slope on the compression side of the curve.
FrictionAngle (Optional)
Type: SystemDouble
The Drucker-Prager friction angle. This item must be smaller or equal to 0 and less than 90. [deg]
DilatationalAngle (Optional)
Type: SystemDouble
The Drucker-Prager dilatational angle. This item must be smaller or equal to 0 and less than 90. [deg]
Temp (Optional)
Type: SystemDouble
The temperature at which the specified data applies. 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

Type: Int32
Returns zero if the data is successfully assigned; otherwise it returns a nonzero value.

   'initialize model

   'create steel deck template model

   'initialize new material property
       ret = SapModel.PropMaterial.SetMaterial("Concrete", eMatType.Concrete)

   'assign other properties
       ret = SapModel.PropMaterial.SetOConcrete_1("Concrete", 5, False, 0, 1, 2, 0.0022, 0.0052, -0.1, 0, 0)

   'close ETABS
       EtabsObject.ApplicationExit(False)

   'clean up variables
       SapModel = Nothing
       EtabsObject = Nothing
