The StructuralSurfaceMember type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	StructuralSurfaceMember(Guid, String, IReadOnlyListCurveStructuralPointConnection, StructuralMaterial, MemberThicknessStructuralPointConnection)	Create a 2D member
	StructuralSurfaceMember(Guid, String, IReadOnlyListCurveStructuralPointConnection, StructuralMaterial, Length)	Create a 2D member

Properties

	Name	Description
	Alignment	Position of the system plane.
	AnalysisEccentricityZ	Eccentricity of the force system line in Z direction of the local coordinate system
	Area	The area of the member The application providing the ModelExchanger.AnalysisDataModel should calculate this field.
	Behaviour	Behaviour of the 2D member will during analysis
	Color	The color of the object. Primarily used when exporting to BIM+
	Edges	The CurveTCoordinate's which define the shape of the member
	Id	The ID of the Analysis object. Needs to be unique within the entire model (Inherited from StructuralAnalysisObjectBase.)
	InternalNodes	Contains the nodes connected to this rib but are not part of the geometry
	Layer	Custom created layer name. Used to group entities together
	LCSAdjustment	Contains more information about LCS adjustments for the 2D member (eg rotation, LCS type, ...)
	Material	The material out of which the 2D member is constructed
	Name	The name of the Analysis object. Needs to be unique within it's type (Inherited from StructuralAnalysisObjectBase.)
	ParentId	The ID of the parent object of the same type
	Shape	Shape of the 2D member in the sense of the planarity of the system plane.
	StructuralEccentricityZ	Eccentricity of the system line in Z direction of the local coordinate system
	Thickness	The thickness of the 2D member
	Type	Type of the 2D member. Supports user-defined values

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