	ParentId	The ID of the parent object of the same type
	Position	The position of the hinge on the curve member.
	RotationX	Rotational stiffness & the flexibility in rotation of the connection around local X axis
	RotationY	Rotational stiffness & the flexibility in rotation of the connection around local Y axis
	RotationZ	Rotational stiffness & the flexibility in rotation of the connection around local Z axis
	TranslationX	Translation & flexibility of the connection in the X direction;
	TranslationY	Translation & flexibility of the connection in the Y direction;
	TranslationZ	Translation & flexibility of the connection in the Z direction;

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Check if this object is the same as the provided object. (Overrides StructuralAnalysisObjectBaseEquals(Object).)
	Equals(RelConnectsStructuralMember)	Indicates whether the current object is equal to another object of the same type.
	Equals(StructuralAnalysisObjectBase)	Check if this object is the same as the provided object. (Inherited from StructuralAnalysisObjectBase.)
	GetHashCode	Retrieves the hashcode of the object (Overrides StructuralAnalysisObjectBaseGetHashCode.)
